The Heart of England Forest is an exciting and ambitious charity. We are helping to reverse centuries of woodland decline by creating and conserving a huge broadleaf forest for the benefit of the environment, wildlife and people. A place of enduring natural beauty, protected and secured for generations to come.
And we want to share all of our wonderful work with you. Community talks are a fantastic, interactive way to learn about our work that is creating biodiverse habitats that support not just wildlife, but human life, will give us all the best chance of adapting to our changing climate.
What is a community talk?
Community talks are a great way to bring people together to share the wonderful work of the charity in the local area.
We are facing a climate emergency, biodiversity crisis, and health and wellbeing issues across society, and we are part of the solution.
The Forest is home to an incredible array of habitats, including new tree planting, mature and ancient woodland, grassland, heathland, farmland and wetland, that enable animals, plants and people to thrive.
What we offer
We offer a talk in person at locations within a 45-minute drive from our office at Dorsington or in an online format via Zoom. We ask for a minimum donation of £60 for a talk (both in-person and online) to help support our work.
The talk is called ‘An Introduction to the Heart of England Forest’ and details our history, our vision, our progress, and the opportunities for people to engage with this beautiful natural space.
The talk lasts approximately 45 minutes, and time is given for questions afterwards.
