Autumn Highlights featuring all our latest news now available.
Oak Wood Sculpture Trail now open

The Oak Wood Sculpture Trail, made possible partly thanks to funding from the Tesco “Bags of Help” Scheme, was officially opened during our Summer Fayre in August. The extension to the existing Sculpture Trail aims to encourage wider exploration of the site in the north-western part of Rushmere Country Park.

Our series of Greensand Trust Talk continues at The Working Woodlands Centre at Maulden Wood where our volunteer Tom Thomas will tell us why these much-maligned and often feared creatures are in fact "good companions".
