Community forests in England

For nearly thirty years, England’s Community Forests have been transforming the landscapes and communities in and around our largest towns and cities.
These ten organisations (supported by partners from the public, private and voluntary sectors, and of course, local communities themselves) bring trees and people together to create healthy, inspiring resilient places for humans and nature to live, side by side.
England’s Community Forests focus their work in and around our towns and cities where most people live, work and travel and where the need is greatest. They connect urban populations with the wider landscape, to improve wellbeing, help tackle climate change and create places for nature.
Community Forests are not a single woodland, but a growing number of distinct trees, woods and forests across each area, linking to existing woodlands, weaving through our urban areas and wrapping around our communities.
The table below lists the ten forests. As some of them straddle county boundaries they are more conveniently listed by region and town or city. 
England’s Community Forests is supported by Community Forest Trust, the national champion for Community Forests in England. Read about CFT here - https://www.communityforest-trust.org/ Twitter: @CommForestTrust
