Join us for this workshop on how to assess the condition of temperate rainforest habitat using the Rapid Rainforest Assessment (RRA).

The RRA has been used to assess the condition of hundreds of temperate rainforests across the UK. The new app gets us thinking on the move and provides an instant summary of management recommendations.

This online workshop covers the following topics:

  • What is a temperate rainforest
  • What habitat characteristics define a temperate rainforest?
  • Where can we find temperate rainforest within the landscape?
  • What are the current threats to temperate rainforest in Cumbria?
  • Guidance in using the Rapid Rainforest Assessment and support using the RRA App for data collection

This project is funded by the Government’s Species Survival Fund. The fund was developed by Defra and its arm’s-length bodies. It is being delivered by The National Lottery Heritage Fund in partnership with Natural England and the Environment Agency.
