Planning Permission

News Update: December 2019

We are delighted to announce that planning permission has been granted for the redevelopment work on Cameron's Cottage. It's full steam ahead for brand-new children’s education centre in the heart of the New Forest

RSPB spokesperson, Beth Markey, said: “It has never been more critical to engage young people in nature. Absolutely everyone has a connection to the environment, whether it’s simply strolling in the forest or taking an active interest in the welfare of animals. Unfortunately, many don’t realise it because they haven’t had the opportunity to engross themselves in nature, particularly if they’ve grown up in a city.

“Cameron’s Cottage is a truly wonderful venture that provides an unparalleled opportunity for people to completely absorb themselves in trees, plants and wildlife, free from electricity and the bonds of daily life. We are delighted to be working with the Cameron Bespolka Trust, which has an important vision to educate, inspire and open up the leaders of tomorrow to the wonders of nature.”
