Update 15th July 2024: The agenda is almost finalised and bookings are rolling in. The conference will address key heathland issues, focusing on; working as partnerships, rewilding, heathland ecology and management, climate change and the monitoring of successes and failures.
The talks aim to cover a wide range of sites across the country and into Europe, and a diverse range of topics. Common themes will be around the importance of scale and the differing strategies that are needed, context, and the challenges and opportunities we face.
