Take shelter from the sun under leafy canopies, discover habitats alive with colour and life, and boost your physical and mental health in the Forest this summer.

Working with schools to take learning into the Forest is helping children thrive and having a positive impact on both behaviour and academic performance.

Recent surveys recorded 423 different species of invertebrate in the Forest, including some rare and Nationally Scarce species. Find out more from Sam from our biodiversity team.

We are tree planting to mitigate climate whilst also supporting The Queen’s Green Canopy - a unique tree planting initiative created to mark Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee.

Heart of England Forest volunteers have just been awarded The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service. This is the highest award a local voluntary group can receive in the UK and is equivalent to an MBE.

On the 5th June, we will be celebrating 'Our One Earth' as part of World Environment Day 2022. We are proud to be planting and protecting a 30,000 acre broadleaf forest that will benefit generations to come and provide a brighter future for all of us.
