The UK’s premier green space management charity, the Land
Trust, looks back on a successful 2023/24, with a 14% increase in social value
delivery across its growing portfolio of sites, totalling an estimated
£38.7million.
The Land Trust has taken management of five new sites, including two service
charge sites and three SANG (Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace), bringing
the total of sites to 86, covering an area of over 2,500 hectares.
With an estimated 2.4 million visitors, the sites saw a 34% increase in
volunteering, which helps to enhance local habitats, improve health and
wellbeing, and develop new skills. Additionally, there were 542 one-off or
seasonal events and a remarkable 217% rise in mental health-related activities,
providing local communities with an invaluable resource.
The Land Trust review outlines the year’s significant charitable delivery
across all of its five key areas: health, education, community cohesion, the
environment and biodiversity, and the economy.
