Surrey heathland project

Surrey Heathland Project is running a programme of heathland management and restoration called 'Surrey's Last Wilderness' which is supported by Woking Borough Council along with twelve other partners and is substantially funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund.  Of the 26 sites involved in the programme, five - Brookwood Heath, Horsell Common, Prey Heath, Sheet's Heath and Smart's Heath - are in Woking Borough.  Apart from organising grazing and clearance of invasive scrub and bracken the work of the Project involves promoting an understanding of heathland and encouraging good practice in its management.
