Exploring Our Community Woodland: It Just Got Easier

We’re thrilled to announce that CoedUNO is set to become a vibrant, inclusive, and resilient community woodland, following the award of a TWIG grant of £151,015.

The Woodland Investment Grant (TWIG) supports landowners to create woodlands for local communities to enjoy, as part of the National Forest for Wales programme. This funding will enable improvements that enhance biodiversity, accessibility, and opportunities for learning and community engagement.

As part of the project, we’ll be producing new digital and bilingual learning resources, and expanding our volunteering and outdoor learning programmes, so more people can explore, learn, and get involved in the woodland.

“The TWIG grant is an incredible boost for CoedUNO. It allows us to make the woodland welcoming for everyone while supporting learning, skills development, and conservation that benefits both people and nature.”— Beccy Jesson, Project Coordinator

The TWIG scheme is delivered by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, in partnership with the Welsh Government’s National Forest for Wales programme.

CoedUNO is set to become a space where people and nature thrive together — a community woodland everyone can enjoy.
