The Northern Ireland Squirrel Forum (NISF) was established to bring together statutory and non-statutory organisations as well as representatives of country parks, private landowners and local volunteer organizations dedicated to protecting the red squirrel in Northern Ireland.
Forum membership
The NISF provides an opportunity for the members of the group to feedback details of news, exchange ideas, new research findings, best practice on how to help conserve red and control grey squirrels. The NISF was a key driving force for Northern Ireland’s involvement in the Red Squirrels United project.
The NISF is chaired by the Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA) and has representation from:
Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (DAERA) - Countryside Management
