Abstract

Better Woodlands for Wales (BBW) is the Forestry Commission Wales (FCW) grant scheme designed to meet the Woodland Strategy vision. The vision of the strategy for Wales to be known for its high-quality woodlands that enhance the landscape, are appropriate to local conditions and have a diverse mixture of species and habitats. The BBW scheme has been developed in consultation with woodland owners and their agents as well as our partner organisations. As a result, the new scheme places greater emphasis on good quality woodland management and offers grants specially designed for Welsh woodlands. Grant aid is now based upon an approved long term management plan. This plan must meet the minimum standards under the UK Woodland Assurance Scheme. BWW was closed to new applications in April 2 012.
