Our stories

Bondhay Golf Club, Whitwell

Bondhay Golf Club had unused land between the 15th green and 16th tee on their Devonshire Course. This area of slowly regenerating grassland wasn’t contributing to play but had potential for environmental improvement.

Roots Allotments, Dronfield

Roots Allotments sits nestled on the edge of Dronfield, with wonderful views across Derbyshire and the Peak District. As the allotment site began to grow in popularity, it became clear that trees and hedgerows could play an important role in shaping the space and the busy community using it.

Sudbury Hall, National Trust

At National Trust Sudbury Hall, a new area of parkland is being given a refresh with tree planting. Just under five hectares that previously offered limited engagement for visitors is being reshaped into a space people can move through, spend time in, and enjoy throughout the year.
