Woodland Habitat Impact Assessment (WHIALite) Workshop – Tayvallich

Known as ‘WHIA Lite’ this method has been developed to stand separately to the full Woodland Habitat Impact Assessment (WHIA) methodology found in the woodland grazing toolbox on the Scottish Forestry website.

2025 Scottish WHIALite Programme Learn a methodology for assessing the impacts of grazing herbivores on woodland habitat.

(Please note the this methodology is not suitable for Scottish Forestry grant support nor Protected Site assessment – the full WHIA methodology would be required in these instances.)

This is part of a series of workshops across Scotland  this Spring to train Practitioners in its use.

Ideal for those interested in carrying out their own site assessments relating to herbivore damage i.e. Deer Managers, Gamekeepers, Land, Forestry and Woodland Managers
