Open Forum Group

The Open Forum Group includes organisations and individuals with an interest in the management of our Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Through news-sheets and occasional workshops these members are kept up to date with the work of the AONB Unit, Steering Committee and Working Groups to conserve and enhance the Island’s finest landscapes.

Each year the Isle of Wight AONB Partnership’s Annual Open Forum offers the opportunity to bring together all Partnership members, along with members of the public, to discuss achievements, current projects, and provide a medium for disseminating topical information on the AONB.
