Corby Woodland Project


An award-winning project ensuring well-managed woodlands for the enjoyment of Corby's residents and visitors

Woodlands

Our projects care for the fragments of Rockingham Forest and green spaces that remain in and around the town of Corby.

To celebrate the King’s Coronation, we received funding to help up to 30 groups plant community orchards.
