For those who missed our story in Forest Matters, here’s a quick reminder that, with preparations for the next UK Woodland Assurance Standard review well under way, the UKWAS steering group is looking for stakeholders to express interest in participating.

Due to additional demands for FSC Recycled products because of the COVID-19 pandemic, FSC has issued a derogation about using virgin fibre in these products.

Our radical Small Woods Standard is going to face the ultimate challenge – so we’re renewing our call for those willing to share their views – or even to host a forest test.
