Woods on your Doorstep woods are special - they were planted by communities who wanted to make a lasting difference to their local area for the benefit of others.
We would like as many people as possible to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Woods on your Doorstep. We want to celebrate the growth of these woods, thank those who helped create woods by planting trees or donating money, share memories, have fun, and inspire more communities with the story of Woods on your Doorstep to plant more trees in their local areas too!
There are many ways you can get involved:
1) Upload your photographs and memories of your local wood
Use our Woods on your Doorstep map to navigate to your local Millennium Wood. There you can upload your photographs and comments about your wood.
You can see all photographs of Woods on your Doorstep woods in our photogallery
Your stories, memories and pictures are a wonderful way to help us inspire more communities to plant trees in their local area.
