Big news! This week we are saying goodbye to Neville.
While Cumbria Woodlands has changed and evolved over the years, Neville's leadership and vision have been a consistent part of the organisation for 23 years, advocating and working for the people and woodlands of the region. As a team, we would like to thank Neville for all that he has done for Cumbria Woodlands over the years and wish him all the best in his future endeavours.
"I have the best time working with such great people and wonderful woodlands and places. Together we have made the thousands of hectares of woodlands better for wildlife and people...
I’m really excited to see Cumbria Woodlands grow in new directions and wish them all the best, they are such a great team that I will miss hugely. The need for woodlands and for improving their management and condition has never been greater and the team have a huge range of skills and behaviours to help make this happen."

"I'm off to seek out new projects and adventures up north both for work and play. I will not have the opportunity to say farewell in person to all those people who we have worked with over the years but hopefully we will catch up on a sunny day in a wonderful woodland."
"I'm finishing at the end of June, you can still contact me through Cumbria Woodlands, after which i can be found here Neville.Elstone@hotmail.com"
