The Isle of Wight Council (IWC), National Farmers Union (NFU) and Royal Isle of Wight Agricultural Society (RIWAS) commissioned BCM to undertake the Isle of Wight Collection Centre Feasibility Study.
The purpose of the study was to canvass opinion, determine demand and assess the need and benefits of establishing a livestock collection centre on the Isle of Wight.
The review considered a full range of factors to include location, operating models and the legislation underpinning the operation of a livestock collection centre on the Island.
It is hoped the findings of the study will inform and support interested individuals who may wish to take forward the establishment of a livestock collection centre on the Isle of Wight.
