Biodiversity

FODW aims to increase the biodiversity of Duchess Wood,
focusing on re-introducing native Scottish tree and plant
species, which may encourage the growth of existing
animal and bird populations and attract new species to the area.

Promoting Recreation

FODW aims to provide a natural, but accessible environment
for young and old alike for recreational purposes.
