New Forest Funding from the Rural Development Programme for England (RDPE)
In early 2008, a partnership of the New Forest Local Action Group, New Forest District Council and the New Forest National Park Authority successfully submitted a bid for £2.175 million funding for European funding which would be delivered through the RDPE (Leader) programme 2008-2013.
In the New Forest, this funding is being used to support certain types of capital investment in farming, forestry and rural businesses, as well as to build and improve key community facilities.
