The Norfolk and Suffolk Brecks has a tangible history of human-shaping that goes back thousands of years yet, today is home to 28% of the UK's rarest species and was described in the University of East Anglia's biodiversity audit (2010) as, "a nationally important biodiversity hotspot".

Artist and place-maker, Timo Peach takes a whistle-stop tour of exactly what makes the Brecks so special, explores the history of its collaborative management and introduces some of the people working with this unique landscape who we will hear more from later in the series.

This episode kicks off the first season of this podcast, exploring the theme of Resilience. How do we manage a landscape to make it more resilient for the future?
