The Forestry Commission have recently published new increased level of woodland grants for owners who are planning to undertake management for wildlife biodiversity and woodland improvement. To access these grants you and your wood need to be registered with the Rural Payments Agency. This workshop aims to guide owners of small woodlands through the bureaucracy of RPA Registration. The workshop should be useful to any woodland owners who are planning to undertake any activities such as felling, coppicing, ride widening, improving access, deer fencing, rhododendron control, conifer removal, etc.
