27 May 2025Fife Forestry and Woodland Strategy - Feedback

Feedback is sought on a draft Fife Forestry and Woodland Strategy, which updates the previous version published in 2013

The draft strategy has been developed by the environmental consultancy LUC, in partnership with Fife Council and Fife Coast and Countryside Trust. It reflects comments gathered at a stakeholder event held on in January 2025. Fife Coast and Countryside Trust are now seeking wider public and professional input through this consultation. 

The draft strategy is presented in two formats: an interactive storymap which provides a summary of the vision, aims, objectives and priorities set out in the draft strategy; and a full report which provides more background to the context and thinking behind the strategy. 

Please follow the link for more detail and to respond to the survey.
