Forestry operations in woodlands across England and Wales play a pivotal role in the management and conservation of these diverse ecosystems.
We have created a free and in-depth guide on the timing of these operations, which can significantly impact the delicate balance between sustainable management objectives and the enhancement of wildlife habitats, including protected species.
If you are a woodland owner or manager who needs further guidance on sustainable management, our membership offers many benefits, including:
We are pleased to be able to recommend Woodways Woodland Insurance, a division of Fiveways Insurance Group.
The scheme, launched in July 2024, provides public liability and legal expenses cover to protect woodland owners against claims for negligence leading to damage or injury that may occur to third parties, or their property within a woodland.
The cover is suitable for owners of woodlands but also allows for individuals and families who wish to ensure they are protected from claims against them. This is particularly important where you have public rights of way, bridleways, public highways and byways going through or running alongside your woodland(s).
The policy covers up to 150 hectares in size – anywhere in the UK, for anyone who owns a woodland for their own private enjoyment. The scheme can, subject to referral, cater for certain risk features such as (but not limited to): water courses, mineshafts, disused quarries, and even forest school activities.
