Countryside Stewardship is a government scheme which provides funding for farmers, woodland owners, foresters and land managers to make environmental improvements.  There are four main elements to the scheme:

 

  • - Mid Tier, which offers options, supplements and capital items to achieve simple and effective environmental benefits
  • - Higher Tier, which covers the more environmentally significant sites, commons and woodlands
  • - Wildlife Offers, which help farmers and land managers protect wildlife and preserve the natural environment
  • - Capital Grants, including Catchment Sensitive Farming Water Capital grant, hedgerows and boundaries grant, historic buildings restoration grant, woodland support

 

We can assist with the application process and on-going support for these schemes.
