Course Description
This course is ideal for those who manage or advise on the management of upland or lowland heaths and associated habitats and who wish to maximise their nature conservation value. Delegates will learn to evaluate the nature conservation value of a heath or moor and plan its management. Assess the impacts of management tools (including grazing, cutting and burning) and how and when to use them for the maximum benefit of wildlife. Age heather and identify signs of overgrazing in the field and how best to tackle the problem. Manage for the needs of specialised heathland reptiles, birds, invertebrates and flora. Manage recreational pressure on moors and heaths (including reducing the risk of accidental fires) and to restore damaged heathlands.
