Ablington Woods Saved!

The community has successfully raised the funds necessary to purchase Ablington Woods from the Defence Infrastructure Organisation, and the sale process will be completed shortly.

A fantastic effort by the whole community has collected £32,000 in a little less than 9 months, with all manner of events, talks, raffles and auctions helping to raise money, along with very generous donations from lots of people.

Save Ablington Woods Update

As of the end of November, the fundraising total is almost £26,000. Only another £6K to go!

Well done everyone who’s contributed so far, either by organising events or donating/participating.
