Documents for the Balloch Wood Community Woodland Project

This set of pages will form a record of formal Project documents.

Original Balloch Wood Management

Creetown Initiative Limited (CIL) had a 25-year Management Agreement with the former Forestry Enterprise, now Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS) to manage the Balloch Wood on behalf of the local Community.
CIL originally signed this Agreement and then passed the project over to the Balloch Wood Community Project, later BWCV, who had done a great job over the 25 years caring for the wood and keeping Balloch Wood in a good state of repair.
With this agreement expiring, the original Members of BWCP decided last year it was time to retire from the project and to close down the original Community Venture.

A previous Community Consultation was carried out in 2021 by Mind the Gap Research and Training, Creetown. Their report can be read here.
