[Raider112]

Has anybody who applied for the above had word on whether they have been successful? it's getting towards time for starting work and still no word.

Do you mean the Hedgerow and Boundary Grant ?? If yes, then yes I applied in March 2019 but it got rejected due to the stupid rule that YOU have to apply on line but with in 10 days send evidence to a office,{ Crewe I think] not via the on line application. Any how I sent the maps and photos to Crewe but 2 months later I was looking on line at my NE / SPS etc page and noticed it said my grant application was cancelled. When I phoned up to complain/find out why, it seems the evidence should have gone to Worksop not Crewe but I had an e mail from NE to say Crewe !!??
Anyhow in September , out of the blue I had a contract from NE for the grant for this winter.
Maybe you should check on line that your application was recieved and check status .
If it was some other grant then sorry I ve just wasted a minute of your time and can t help !!

Thanks, yes that's the one. I don't remember if I sent anything off or not but the last time I checked it said it was ongoing or something similar, it's a couple of weeks since I checked so I'll have to look again tomorrow.

The woodland trust will sell you the trees (at a subsidized rate)

Yes, hedgerows and boundaries scheme here (hedgelaying, staking and binding) - was notified about 2 months ago - everything approved off photos, no visit which I was surprised about

 

[som farmer]

I was going to fill in all the gaps this winter and plant a few trees out of my own pocket but thought i might as well wait and see if i can get paid to do it in this new green era we are about to enter

The last sentence being the most imp[ortant factor in the brave "new green era"...!!
