- Supporting local biodiversity, rewilding, and/or restoration of the natural world.
- The enhancement of local business, community groups and long-term sustainable partnerships in the airport’s surrounding area.
- Improving healthy working lives and increase upskilling and employment opportunities for the socially isolated, economically deprived, and/or otherwise disadvantaged persons.
