Heart of the Forest - Forest Plan 2025

Closes 3 Jan 2025

Opened 28 Nov 2024

Overview

Forest Plans define the long term vision for a woodland or a collection of woodlands and set out how management will move towards achieving this vision over the next ten years.

We would like to invite you or your organisation to leave some feedback on our Heart of the Forest - Forest Plan which lies in the centre of the National Forest. This forms part of our consultation with stakeholders, that helps to ensure that we achieve an appropriate balance of objectives.

 

Why your views matter

This is the first forest plan for these new community woodlands and we are therefore asking for your feedback to ensure the objectives are considered and balanced for the proposals being put forward in this rewrite for these woodlands.

It is also a requirement that all Forestry England woodlands are managed to the high standards needed to meet the UK Woodland Assurance Standard that in turn ensure sustainable forest management certification of the nations forests is maintained.

The Forest Plan is available to download below in PDF format on A3 or alternatively viewable online within the Survey.

This part of the consultation will run until 3rd January 2025
