The Independent Panel on Forestry (that was formed following the sell-off proposal being dropped) is gathering public opinion as to the future direction on the ownership and potential usage of the UK's forestry. The deadline for submissions is the 31st July.
If you use any of the UK's forests for recreation (biking, walking) or simply recognize the importance of the forests for wildlife and the environment then take a few moments to email the panel. Every email will help to enforce the importance that the general public place on our forests.
