Chaired by Caroline Thorogood, this workshop aims to broaden perceptions of the relationships between native trees and peatlands in the context of landscape-scale restoration, following on from the National Trust webinar ‘Trees and Peat – Interactions in Ecosystem Recovery’ earlier this year.
Inspiration came from Kate Hanley, RSPB Site Manager, who shared the innovative approach being taken at RSPB Dovestones. Delegates were then invited to discuss and prioritise key themes identified during the webinar and presentation and explored challenges and opportunities in relation to the restoration of natural processes. Input from this session is being used to inform a joint publication on the topic, developed by the National Trust and IUCN UK Peatland Programme.
