Role of disturbance in forests: lessons creating deadwood

The National Forest Podcast - Episode 1: Bare Ground
The rumble of traffic, the creak of rusting machinery; a distinct lack of wildlife’s thrum. This is the sound of the area that would eventually become the National Forest – but now, we’re in the late 1980s, following the closure of the coal and clay industries there. In this episode we focus on the things that preceded the National Forest’s inception, culminating in a land crying out for regeneration – not just environmentally, but economically and socially too. We explore the visionaries who decided to push for change, and how they made their voices heard. We understand what is at stake for the land and people who live here.
The Role of Welsh Wood in Our Lives
Welsh woodlands are more than just beautiful landscapes – they provide essential materials for our homes, furniture, and everyday products.   In this short video, discover how sustainably managed Welsh forests supply timber for construction and manufacturing, creating high-quality products used across the UK. From tree selection and harvesting to sawmilling and homebuilding, follow the journey of Welsh wood as it transforms into materials that shape our lives.   Learn how local processing supports communities, businesses, and a greener future. Whether it’s a kitchen cupboard, a well-insulated home, or a piece of furniture, Welsh timber plays a vital role in sustainable living.
