RFS Long Service Award

The RFS offers this award to hands-on woodmen, contractors or foresters who have worked at the sharp end of forestry with the same employer and/or on the same estate for at least 30 years. It is our way of publicly recognising and thanking those whose skill and dedication in shaping our woods might otherwise go largely unrecognised.
