CWA Conference 2012 – To Celebrate 25 Years of Community Woodlands in Scotland In 1987 Wooplaw Community Woodland became the first community woodland buyout in Scotland, leading the way in the formation of a national movement that now boasts over 200 community woodlands in Scotland. The movement could not have begun without the ambition of its early founders (and of course the trees) but the growth of our movement has been largely down to the commitment, passion and enthusiasm of the individuals and communities throughout Scotland who are driving their woodlands to success. On the 1st and 2nd of September CWA will celebrate these people, their places, their progress and their passion during our national conference. The conference will be held alongside the planned celebrations in Wooplaw Woods, working with the Wooplaw Wardens to deliver an inspirational, informative and fun weekend worthy of celebration. The CWA Conference will be held at Tweed Horizons Centre, Newtown St. Boswells TD6 0SG and the Dinner/Ceilidh will be at the Buccleuch Arms Hotel, St Boswells, Melrose TD6 0EW.
