The Forestry Commission controls the management of woodlands by issuing Felling Licence and English Woodland Management Grant Schemes under the terms of the Forestry Act. Before undertaking any work to woodlands, you should contact the Forestry Commission at the following address for further information:

The New Forest National Park Authority will be consulted by the Forestry Commission when woodland owners seek a Felling Licence or funding through one of the grant schemes.
A register of felling licences and new grant scheme applications is available to view on the Forestry Commission website.
We encourage the creation of new woodlands and are committed to improving the management of existing woods by working with partners throughout the Park and surrounding areas.
