Our Aims & Objectives

We want you and your family to enjoy the beautiful woodlands. Whether it's going for walks or lending a helping hand to our volunteers who maintain the landscape (and the creatures that inhabit it), you are most welcome.

Some of our more detailed aims:

• Our principal aim is to maintain and enhance the overall appearance of the site, reflecting its history, location, amenity and potential education value
• The focus of the management is to preserve important specimen trees while enhancing the rest of the woodland
• To work with the Greensand Trust (GST) and Central Beds Council (CBC) to maintain Knolls Wood
• To prevent exploitation of, or threats to, the woodland and local environment
• To be cognizant of and supportive to the Climate Change debate
• To monitor long-term planning and involve the local community
• To preserve the history of the woods
