Social scientists need your help to understand the impact of the Climate Change Hub

The Climate Change Hub brings together information and practical guidance about protecting our UK woodlands and forests from the impacts and risks due to the changing climate through adaptive practice. It aims to provide straightforward, practical support particularly for landowners, woodland managers and forestry practitioners.

A suite of new content is already in the pipeline and we would like you to help shape our future plans. Forest Research wants to understand the Climate Change Hub’s impact to date and help ensure it meets your needs as we continue to develop climate change guidance.

Do you use the Climate Change Hub? Have you told others about the Climate Change Hub? Do you use information on the Climate Change Hub to craft your forestry advice? Do you have a particular interest in the Climate Change Hub?

If the answer to any of these questions is yes, please read on!
