Epping Forest Centenary Trust was set up in 1978 to celebrate the centenary of the saving of Epping Forest by the Epping Forest Act of 1878. Our primary purpose is to provide opportunities for groups and individuals to access Epping Forest and take part in activities to promote conservation and awareness. Our activities are aimed at those who would not normally have the opportunity to access the Forest for whatever reason eg lack of knowledge, funding, transport etc.
By providing these opportunities we very much hope that future generations will help protect Epping Forest.
As a charitable trust we are reliant on donations and subscriptions given to us by our members and by our supporters. Without this support we would be unable to offer our services to groups.
Benefits
If you become a member you can receive a printed copy of our newsletter: "Trust in the Forest" three times a year; early notification of our events and opportunities to help in various ways.
Additionally it is an excellent opportunity to contribute to the wider community an experience of what we all take for granted with a fantastic Forest on our doorstep. Wherever possible the Trust tries to keep costs to a minimum. However, to ensure we maintain safety standards we do incur expenses re health and safety, tools and equipment, transport, staff training. We very much appreciate the support of our members and donors to ensure we are able to cover our costs.
