Time to house your poultry again.

APHA: In response to the significant increase of findings of avian influenza in kept and wild birds, from 00:01 on Sun 16 Feb, mandatory housing measures to protect poultry & captive birds will be extended to Cheshire, Herefordshire, Lancashire, Merseyside and Worcestershire. All bird keepers in these areas must, from this date, house their birds in addition to following stringent biosecurity measures. If you fall into a Protection Zone outside of these areas, you must also house your birds. The AIPZ mandating enhanced biosecurity remains in place across GB. Further info is available at:

1. Trees must be planted before 31/03/2025 – the sooner, the better!
2. You must send a photo as evidence of planting.

4. You must agree to maintain the trees and send one photo per year of the trees until 2030 or the end of your tenancy.
5. Any excess fruit should be donated locally or used personally. The fruit must not be sold for profit, and all activities must align with your current tenancy agreement.

APHA: Due to the increase in cases across England & new findings in wild birds, an Avian Influenza Prevention Zone (AIPZ) with mandatory biosecurity measures will be introduced across England & Scotland from noon on Sat 25 Jan. The current regional (AIPZ) with mandatory housing measures will also be extended to include the unitary authorities of North Yorkshire & York & a new area covering Shropshire from 00:01 on Mon 27 Jan. This means all bird keepers must, from these dates, follow the housing rules & stringent biosecurity measures, in addition to following any Protection/Surveillance Zone restrictions in their area, to protect poultry & captive birds.
