The Sherwood Forest Trust supports conservation and community stewardship of historic Sherwood Forest, with a strong emphasis on practical habitat work, tree planting, and local engagement. Its grants and programmes appear to focus on enabling schools, parishes, volunteer groups, and local community organisations to take direct action to protect heathland and woodland sites in Nottinghamshire. The Trust also works closely with landowners, councils, and project partners on landscape-scale restoration and heritage-linked environmental projects.
Primarily an ongoing, place-based community programme rather than a traditional open grantmaker; support is hands-on, practical, and often delivered through resources, coordination, and project partnership. Grants/resources appear to be modest and local in nature, with participation open to community groups, schools, parishes, and volunteers across the Sherwood Forest area.
