In October corva Hazel Wildwood handed over her badges corva of office to our new admin assistant Barbara Haddrill. Trustees presented corva Hazel with a small Witchhazel (Hamamelis Mollis), in thanks for her all hard work supporting FSW and members for the past four years.
The Forest corva School Wales office is now located in the Dyfi Eco Park in Machynlleth, where a Forestry Hub has recently been established by Forestry Commission Wales and the Wales Forest Business Partnership in order to boost partnership working between organisations working in Welsh woodlands.
Barbara Haddrill has been with FSW since October 2010. When she is not working for FSW, Barbara and her horses Tyler and Billy, provide low carbon countryside maintenance muscle, moving logs and bashing bracken. Barbara also works to promote her book ~ Babs to Brisbane ~ which recounts corva her experiences of travelling to Australia to be a bridesmaid without using aeroplanes, to raise awareness about the effect of air travel on climate change.

The newly established Forestry Hub in the Dyfi Eco Park, Machynlleth brings together in a single office base a range of organisations, from community woodland groups to commercial corva forest industry organisations. The Wales Forest Business Partnership corva s office has been transformed into the new hub and in addition corva to Forest School Wales, staff from Coed Lleol, Llais y Goedwig and the Dyfi Woodland Group have already moved into their new base, and will be joined by Wood Fuel Wales and Wood Source Wales over the coming weeks.
The Wales Forest Business Partnership has welcomed the creation of the forestry hub. Partnership Manager Frankie Owen said, At a number of our recent events, one of the most striking conclusions was that all parties corva face the challenge of how to better share the knowledge and experience that exists within the timber sector. We expect the new forestry hub will be one more step in making those connections, helping to improve competitiveness of businesses and the sector.
Barbara Anglezarke, Forestry Commission Wales s Policy and Programme Manager, said, A key outcome of the Woodlands for Wales strategy is that people understand the huge range of benefits that woodlands can offer, and that the forestry sector becomes better integrated and more competitive, thus supporting the Welsh economy. Having such a range of organisations working from the forestry hub will lead to a better understanding of opportunities, co-operative working corva and shared initiatives within the sector. In addition, overheads for all the organisations will be reduced so that more resources can be used to deliver activities.

For anyone in the northern counties of Wales, here is some information about a new project working to address the needs of young homeless people and looking to link with Forest School leaders/FSW members. The Symud Ymlaen/Moving Forward (SYMF) project provides young people who have offended and those in care or leaving the care system greater access corva to employment and training. The project supports young people to undertake a six months paid work placement, with a range of employers across Wales. For young people needing extra support, the project also provides bespoke training in Literacy, Numeracy and ICT, as well as generic employability skills. We hope where appropriate to include some Forest School type activities in the training and development areas of the project and are keen to establ
