Kevin from North West Leicestershire
Kevin is the chairman and director of Heartwood Community Woodfuel Group CIC, who are a volunteer group managing woodland in North West Leicestershire. The group has over 130 volunteers who spend their time working in several local woodlands and managing them on behalf of landowners such as the Woodland Trust. The role Kevin plays in the group is diverse, from taking part in the active nature of woodland work, to engaging the community in our group.
The wide-ranging benefits for Kevin and the group include, physical and mental wellbeing, being part of a friendly like-minded group of people, spending time outdoors, caring for the woodlands and the wildlife they support. Since retiring in 2017, Kevin has spent a great deal of time in the woods or working to make the group more successful and accessible to others.
