Not Bourne Yesterday Public Engagement Survey



Not Bourne Yesterday is a new programme hosted by the Chilterns National Landscape. In this programme, we are exploring how people can best connect with chalk streams, which are a unique feature of the Chilterns National Landscape. Chalk streams are rivers which are fed by underground chalk aquifers, resulting in clear and stable in temperature waters, providing a unique habitat for biodiversity.

To make this programme meaningful and relevant, we want to hear your ideas, hopes, concerns and questions about chalk streams. Please help us gather important information about you and your relationship with nature and chalk streams to help us develop Not Bourne Yesterday. Thank you.
