Dartmoor’s Temperate Rainforests

Come along to hear our Chief Executive Officer, Dr Laurence Couldrick, talk about the role of temperate forests and other nature-based solutions in delivering integrated catchment management.

Dartmoor’s temperate woodlands with their understory of lichens, mosses and shrubs are one of the wonders of Dartmoor. Join us at the Fingle Bridge Inn, located in a beautiful woodland setting, to hear a range of talks exploring how these temperate woodlands evolved, what steps are taken to conserve them and what the future is for these climate sensitive wooded landscapes.

Other speakers include:

Guy Shrubsole Environmental campaigner and public speaker and author of The Lost Rainforests of Britain

Ralph Fyfe of Plymouth University whose research is connected with past environmental change.

Woodland Trust The Woodland Trust and the National Trust have joined forces on Dartmoor and are involved in largescale preservation and protection of some of Dartmoor’s temperate woodlands.

Moor Trees are on a mission to restore native woodland on Dartmoor and we will hear about their work.
