In addition to our work on conservation of geological
SSSIs, there are a number of initiatives aimed at conservation of
a wider range of important geological sites, outside of the SSSI
coverage, and promotion of geological conservation to a wide audience.
The main non-statutory site designations are Local
Nature Reserves (LNRs) and Regionally Important
Geological and Geomorphological Sites (RIGS). There are also
a number of other organisations involved in
geological conservation.
