UK garden designers Fisher Tomlin & Bowyer have released details of the woodland garden that will be built at Blind Veterans UK new Llandudno centre.

And work is already under way to transform four acres of woodland into a useful resource for those using the centre and local residents.

Founding director, Andrew Fisher Tomlin, said: "It was a great honour to be asked to provide master planning and creative designs to transform what was an unused but very valuable resource.

"The new woodland will include a series of experiences linked by a matrix of paths where vision impaired ex-servicemen and women can enjoy the woodland in groups as well as on their own."

Amongst other features the new woodland includes a meeting space formed from a glade with a central outdoor fireplace to make it an all year round destination.

Other features include a special wildlife and bird watching walk as well as shelters, hides and a raised walkway through a densely planted tree planting.

Blind Veterans UK (formerly St Dunstan’s) is a national charity that provides blind and vision impaired ex-Service men and women with lifelong support including welfare support, rehabilitation, training, residential and respite care.

"I suggest that everybody on here read the HMRC MTD Guidance notes.
HMRC base the requirement for MTD ITSA on prior year tax return figures, including any now-ceased income streams. No crystal balls involved."
