England's community forests

Watling Chase Community Forest is one of England's Community Forests, a national partnership that is regenerating and revitalising the greenspace in and around some of our major towns and cities, creating well-wooded environments for work, wildlife, recreation and education.

Together, the twelve Community Forests are helping to improve the health, well-being and quality of life of over half of England’s population.

England’s Community Forests are sponsored by The Forestry Commission and The Countryside Agency and work with 58 local authorities and a wide range of public, private, voluntary and community partners to create better places and more sustainable communities.
