Description
The Land Restoration Trust will ultimately be an independent organisation, which funded through endowments,
aims to restore derelict, neglected or under-used brownfield land and maintain it for
people and nature in the form of publicly accessible green spaces.
The Land Restoration Trust will provide environmentally informed, community-led, long-term regeneration
solutions through local partnerships.
Through its three year ‘pilot phase', the Land Restoration Trust will secure the restoration and management
of some 1,500 hectares establishing partnership-working systems to enable it to expand its
portfolio to 10,000 hectares by year 10 – an area the size of Coventry.
The Land Restoration Trust was created by a partnership comprising English Partnerships, Groundwork,
the Forestry Commission and the Environment Agency, the Land Restoration Trust is tackling
enduring dereliction across England.
