We want to extend a huge thank you to the Mayor of the East Midlands, Claire Ward for joining us today on the Institute for Outdoor Learning’s Nature, Outdoors and Adventure Day.

Today was an opportunity for new CEO, to show Claire Walesby Forest, discuss the importance of our role in the larger visitor economy and also explore the challenges faced in education.

We look forward to working closer with Claire in the future.

We would also like to take this opportunity and to extend an invitation to businesses around us and economy groups to visit us at Walesby Forest, to meet with Charlotte and find out more about us and how we can support each other.

If you would like to visit, please contact us in the comments and a member of our team will reach out to you.

This Volunteers’ Week, we want to say a heartfelt thank you to every volunteer who gives their time, energy and passion to Walesby Forest.

Volunteering is one of the most generous gifts a person can give. Whether supporting events, helping behind the scenes, sharing expertise in a particular role, or simply being there when needed, our volunteers make a real difference every single day.

The impact of that contribution reaches far beyond the tasks completed. It helps create opportunities, experiences and memories that will stay with young people, group leaders, families and guests long after they leave Walesby Forest.

As a charity, we simply could not achieve all that we do without the commitment, dedication and support of our volunteers.

From all of us at Walesby Forest, thank you for everything you do. We are incredibly grateful to have you as part of our community.

And if you’ve ever thought about volunteering in a unique and rewarding charity environment, we’d love to hear from you. Please send us a message to find out more about the opportunities available and how you can get involved.
