Graham Hunt has taken up the post of chair of the Forestry Commission’s West Midlands Regional Advisory Committee (RAC).
Mr Hunt was the project director for the Forest of Mercia Community Forest from its inception in 1989 until 2007. He is now a community partnership officer for Staffordshire County Council working on community strategies and local strategic partnerships for the Cannock Chase and Tamworth areas.
The RAC chairs aim to bring together partners and advise Forestry Commission England, through the regional directors, on the implementation of forestry and related policies at a regional level. The nine RAC chairs also collectively advise Forestry Commission England on matters of national significance.
