MALVERN Hills Conservators has just launched the latest consultation on its proposed new management plan.

The draft document sets out how the Conservators, custodians of the hills and commons, aim to look after their land over the next five years.

Part one of the draft is now available to be read by the public and can be seen on the Conservators' website at malvernhills.org.uk, unter latest news.

Conservation officer Jonathan Bills said: "It gives a background to the Conservators and our work. It also describes everything about the land under our jurisdiction, from tourism to toadstools. This will form the basis from which we can draw out the priorities for our work."

Comments must be received by November 23. Parts two and three of the plan will be released in due course.
