The Friends of Uddens & Cannon Hill Woodlands is made up of local Dorset residents, environmentalists, and users of the Castleman Trailway. Set up to protect this much-loved area of woodland, we believe that this space should be maintained for the benefit of both its wildlife and the people. Amongst days of sedentary employment and entertainment, we believe that public open areas must be maintained and improved to encourage their use.
We focus on practical conservation volunteering in Dorset to transform our wild spaces. The outdoor volunteering
tasks that we undertake vary from peatland & heathland restoration to path and bench maintenance across
Whitesheets, Uddens plantation and Cannon Hill Woodland. As part of this mission, we welcome young
people interested in conservation or looking to complete their DofE with a focus on environmental volunteering in
Dorset.
