Ambition
221+ and Hometree are committed to preserving the site as an untouched, natural native woodland, ensuring it remains a space for future generations to enjoy.
While the goal is to keep the area as wild and natural as possible, some basic infrastructure will be needed to make the site accessible and usable. This work will be carefully overseen by Hometree, whose expertise in conservation and experience in collaborating with local communities will guide the project, ensuring it respects both the land and its neighbours. See below our ambitions for the phased development of some infrastructure on the site to facilitate members and publics to visit and connect.
Costs
The project requires new funding. See here the estimated costs for the proposed development.

Funding Management
While recognised as belonging to those affected by the failures in the CervicalCheck programme, the land will be legally in the ownership of Hometree whose conservation mandate will ensure the land is protected, nurtured to maximise biodiversity, and maintained in accordance with the agreed terms between 221+ and Hometree Charity. All donations of monies to support the project’s development on this site, are to be donated to Hometree.
