The public outcry that ensued following the UK government's announcement it was to sell off state-owned woodlands to private ownership triggered a U-turn in government policy. Woodlands were in the fore of everyone's minds and the topic of conversation up and down the land. It was the biodiversity value of woodlands that became a crucial argument - and public access to the health-giving and recreational world woodlands provide. But now the government have scrapped plans to sell off their woodlands, is the problem over? Saving Species reports from Norfolk where an ancient woodland is being restored and we talk to environmentalist Chris Baines about the value of all woodlands.
