Last week the Government confirmed that it is proposing to privatise the Forestry Commission’s estate, a plan that PCS have stated will deny future generations access to our woodlands and forests. The plans are not just opposed by unions. An online petition calling on the Government to re-think its plans and ‘Save Our Forests’ has now gained over 58,000 signatures. If you want to support the campaign you can also join the 7,000 + members of the facebook group ‘Save Our Forests’ here.
