Community Programmes at Westonbirt Arboretum

We work with groups in the local community to enable everyone to experience and enjoy the national arboretum

Since 2014 our Community Programme have worked with over 9,000 participants from more diverse communities and groups of people, supporting positive mental health and wellbeing through a diverse programme of onsite and outreach activities. Thanks to the National Heritage Lottery Fund, who funded the first four years of the programme, and to the Friends of Westonbirt Arboretum for supporting the continuation of the programme.

If you are part of or lead a community group within a 20 mile radius of Westonbirt, get in touch with us to find out about our range of activities for community groups.

Activities can include anything from learning traditional woodland management skills, to mindfulness based activities to campfire cooking!
