We're currently proceeding with the start up of our Social Foresrty Enterprise, which will take on up to 12 unemployed volunteers in rural Conwy per year, giving them training in woodland management and building up a portfolio of skills and experience to prepare for future employment. The enterprise involves providing a low cost woodland management service to public and private woodland owners in rural Conwy whos woodland is too small and/or inaccessible for commercial management or harvesting. The harvested wood will be turned into wood fuel for the local market in the form of dry, seasoned logs, kindlin, and wood pellets. This is a non-profit distributing venture and any proceeds will be returned into the community through projects, services, and job creation. If you are interested in one of the volunteer trainee positions or are a land owner with unmanaged/productive woodland please get in touch on 01492 642 110.
