Weald Forest Ridge Scheme
wfr
The Weald Forest Ridge Landscape Partnership Scheme is a three year programme of activity, delivered by twenty different partners and co-ordinated by the High Weald AONB Unit. The Weald Forest Ridge Landscape Partnership scheme is enabling these people to reconnect with their landscape; more easily access and enjoy the Ridge; understand it’s unique natural, cultural and built heritage; take part in caring for it; and leave a legacy for future generations. This funding is to provide professional training opportunities for businesses, landowners and individuals. If you live, work or have an association with the Weald Forest Ridge (WFR) area of Sussex and Kent you could benefit from subsidised training, provided through the Weald Forest Ridge Landscape Partnership Scheme. If you are eligible the full training fee can be reduced by 50%. Please contact us for more details.
