Red Squirrels and Woodland Management

Grants for forest management and grey squirrel control are available from the Forestry Commission, under their Woodland Grants Scheme (WGS). 50% additional money for rope bridges, road signs, viewing hides and interpretation information to a level of £10,000 (ie. total cost £20,000) can be obtained through their Woodland Improvement Grant (WIG), as part of a complete management plan. 

There may also be other sources of grant aid available in certain locations in the north west. Contact the Conservation Officer for further information.
