On Friday 21 November 2025, partners from across the country gathered at the Wilderness Centre in Mitcheldean to pledge their support for the Forest of Dean’s journey toward Biosphere designation.
Inspiring voices from Biosffer Dyfi Biosphere and North Devon Unesco Biosphere shared how their communities have flourished since achieving biosphere status, with presentations detailing thriving wildlife and sustainable tourism that enables local businesses to grow.
During these discussions, a powerful theme became apparent throughout the day: we must all work together to protect what makes the Forest so unique.
Key supporters and partners of the application bid were also awarded certificates in recognition of their support.
