Free Webinar: Tuesday June 22nd – 11am Tilhill, the UK’s leading forestry management company announces the latest in a series of free webinars. The webinar on 22 June will focus on exploring the new funding offer for woodland creation in England. The webinar will take farmers, landowners and investors through the process of planting trees on their unproductive or unused land for income, conservation, environmental, and carbon related opportunities. The event is a timely opportunity following the announcement of the government’s England Trees Action Plan and long-term vision for trees, woodland and forests, with plans to restore nature and build back greener, and to see the trebling of tree planting by the end of Parliament being backed by over £500 million of climate finance.
Simon Marrington, Tilhill’s Area Manager in North & Central England has spent twenty-five years in the public and private sector of the UK forestry industry and has a detailed knowledge of capital grant schemes and wider funding opportunities for new woodland creation in England, including potential income from carbon sequestration. Simon will lead attendees through a live in-depth interview with an England-based Estate Manager to explore the process and outcomes of a well-managed estate and it’s environmental, economic and social opportunities and outcomes for farmers and landowners. Julian Ohlsen, a most experienced forester and Regional Manager for Southern England has spent an impressive forty-two years within forestry in the UK and around the world. He is a member of the Institute of Chartered Foresters and a broadleaf woodland owner. Julian will discuss the new funding offer and what it means for the designing of potential woodland creation schemes and the opportunities for farmers and landowners to unlock income from future timber, carbon and the wider biodiversity, water productivity and conservation efforts.
The open Q&A session and panel will include David McCulloch Head of CarbonStore, a company that provides the vital link to unite landowners looking to sell their Woodland Carbon Units with companies keen to offset their carbon emissions. David will be on hand to answer any carbon related questions. Book your place at the free webinar |
