FOREST HOLIDAYS CAMPSITES’ reputation for being green has been further enhanced with a strong showing in the David Bellamy Conservation Awards.

The awards are given to those sites that show significant effort to support the local community, manage land as a haven for wildlife, reduce energy, water and other resource use and reduce, reuse and recycle waste products.

And the success did not end there as Bracelands and Ashurst sites achieved silver rosettes respectively.

Winners are chosen based on regular assessments by wildlife experts. The David Bellamy Conservation Award Scheme is one of the longest running green tourism awards in the UK and is a joint partnership between the Conservation Foundation and the British Holiday & Homes Parks Association.

‘Delighted’

Spencer Pettit, Forest Holidays Business Development Manager, added: “Preserving the woodland is a key priority for Forest Holidays and we are delighted that our sites have been recognised as leaders in protecting the British countryside.

“We would like to thank all of our Forest Holidays Holiday Site Managers and their Assistants for their continued dedication in providing a fantastic service for our campers.”
