PLANS to open an outdoor education centre in the New Forest National Park have received a £200,000 boost. The National Lottery Heritage Fund has awarded a grant to a project named after a teenage naturalist who was killed in an accident in 2013. Cameron Bespolka, of Winchester, was on holiday in the Austrian Alps when the accident happened. A new facility called Cameron’s Cottage will provide accommodation and outdoor pursuits for youth groups and charities as well as schools, colleges and universities. The £200,000 grant will go towards the cost of furnishing the cottage and organising a raft of nature-related activities. The project is the result of a partnership between the RSPB and the Cameron Bespolka Trust, with support from organisations such as the Garfield Weston Foundation.
