LARA is working closely with all three records centres in the vice counties of South and West Lancashire (Greater Manchester Records Centre, Merseyside Biobank and Lancashire Environmental Records Network (LERN)).
Data is shared freely with LERN and it is hoped that full data sharing agreements will be signed with the other two records centres in 2011.
Results from garden surveys will be shared with all three records centres.
