Last weekend we welcomed more than 50 families and hundreds of people to the Future Forest to plant trees in their sponsored plots. Just 37 plots remain – please act now if you want to dedicate a plot to someone special or treat yourself.
Following a successful stakeholder workshop yesterday in Edinburgh, we have completed Phase 2 of the British Woodlands Survey. The top GB-wide theme was Societal Attitudes, followed by Climate Change Adaptation and Pests & Diseases. It is interesting to note how much contrast there was between some countries for certain themes; for example the low importance attributed to Tree Planting in Wales, and Managing for Carbon in England. These results will help us in concentrating questions in the survey to fit with themes or priorities considered most important across GB and its countries.
