A team day out to Dane Valley Woods
Ecological Data Analyst, Lawrence Ball, talks about a recent team day out to Dane Valley Woods - and the team tells us what makes it so special.
It can be difficult to watch a landscape you frequently visit go through dramatic changes but I hope you can understand that at Hothfield Heathlands, the work here is vital to restoring and maintaining one of the rarest habitats we have.
