Britain's oldest national park is being sold off, in what has been accused as privatizing woodlands. Campaigners are arguing that the Peak District National Park is being sold off to the 'highest bidder'. Currently, the Peak District National Park is selling off six woodlands within the park. This is not the first time that woodlands have been sold off in the park, there have already been 14 Woodlands sold off within the national park. The privatisation of woodlands raises two concerns. The first is that it takes away, or could take away the access of the public having access to the woods if the woods are bought by private companies or individuals. Secondly, it poses a risk to the woods themselves and the wildlife within them. If we allow national parks to be bought up, does that not risk the future of conserving our woodland, and the wild animal and plant species that depend on woodlands for their survival?
