  2. Bromhey Farm RSPB Reserve – Collaborative project to improve visitor interpretation across the reserve.
  3. Saxon Shore Way – A guide to the route through Medway, along with a number of enhancements to the path and accompanying signage.
  4. Foreshores – Isle of Sheppey art project, that included sculpture, poetry and film, promoting the natural history and cultural legacy of the island.
  5. Sheppey Ecotourism – A study exploring the feasibility and potential of developing ecotourism on the island.
