BASC and the GWCT have once again teamed up to deliver a course designed to improve best practice on DIY shoots and farm shoots.
The course, which takes place on Saturday 14 May at the Allerton Project in Leicestershire, is aimed at shoot captains, syndicate members and anyone that manages their own small shoot.
It aims to provide guidance on ‘how your shoot could improve and better adhere to best practice methods’ through a mix of interactive classroom sessions, presentations and a walk around a shoot site.
Places cost £150 per person.
