Free courses are on offer to anyone wanting to find out more about woodland and animal management in the New Forest and Avon Valley.

The New Forest Land Advice Service is providing four free training sessions in the New Year to anyone interested in learning more about how to care for the area they live in.

Julie Stubbs, land advice service manager, said: “These four courses are in response to discussions with farmers, commoners and landowners in the New Forest area.”
