Stockport Council has secured a grant for over £100k to improve the biodiversity and accessibility of woodland sites.

The grant will be spent approximately 50% on woodland management including rhododendron removal, non-native species removal and general thinning operations to remove inappropriate species and improve the ground flora and fauna.
