Cross-Channel Geopark Ambassador Charter
Become a Cross-Channel Geopark Ambassador
The Cross-Channel Geopark is a unique partnership celebrating the remarkable chalk landscapes and the Channel connecting us across the UK and France.
Led by the Kent Downs National Landscape and the Parc Naturel Régional des Caps et Marais d’Opale, we’re working together to achieve UNESCO Global Geopark status — international recognition that will help us protect, promote, and better understand our shared geological, cultural, and natural heritage.
By signing the Cross-Channel Geopark Charter, and becoming a Cross-Channel Geopark Ambassador, you’re pledging your support for this ambitious vision and stepping into a valued role as a Ambassador. It’s a chance to stand up for the landscape you love, share its stories, and inspire others to get involved.
Why sign the Cross-Channel Geopark charter?
As a Geopark Ambassador, you’ll join a growing network of passionate individuals and organisations who are helping to shape a more sustainable future for our region — from artists and educators to local businesses, land managers, and community leaders.
You’ll also become part of a fantastic community of existing Ambassadors already making a difference. Meet them in our Ambassador directory!
