Woodland initiatives
 

Woodland Initiatives play an important part in creating and maintaining a sustainable countryside, and have a large network of expertise and experience.

Woodland Initiatives operate at the sub-regional level and characteristically offer a wide range of service from advice, information, training, promotion and support to various points in the wood chain from owners to contractors and processors.
