LEAVING A LEGACY TO NETTLEHAM WOODLAND TRUST

Nettleham Woodland Trust (NWT) relies on grants and donations to continue its work. Leaving a legacy will help to ensure that the woodlands created and managed by NWT will be cared for in the years to come.

As NWT is a registered charity, any monies bequeathed will reduce the tax payable on your estate.

You can either leave a fixed sum, or a proportion of your estate, to NWT. A fixed sum would be reduced by inflation over time, so a proportion might be more suitable. Your solicitor will advise you on this and the proper wording.

The details of our charity are:

Nettleham Woodland Trust

Charity No. 1129705

Company No. 6846907

Registered Address: 5 Lodge Lane , Nettleham, Lincoln , LN2 2RS

HELP WANTED

“Many hands make light work” . NWT has become a very busy and successful charity and its enthusiastic volunteers are getting increasingly busy as more opportunities emerge - the picture with so many groups of this sort. We would like to find some more people who could work with us, possibly as a regular member of the Committee, or perhaps working outside it and attending meetings as relevant. Two areas with which we could do with help at the moment are:

a. Publicity Officer: we have invaluable support from the Nettleham News, but we could do with someone to work with the local media and through other channels to get our message and activities across to the wider public.

b. Events Organiser(s) : there are times when we need someone to take on a specific role e.g. ensuring we have a presence at a local carnival, planning a planting day and engaging local schools or youth groups, or dealing with everything to do with the AGM except the business. As the trees in Monks Wood grow, it could be that we will run occasional evening or holidays activities there, but these need someone to have an overview.

If you are interested and feel you have time to take on one of these roles and would like more information, please contact

members@nettlehamwoodlandtrust.co.uk

LCHS pupils Gardening Group spreading wood chippings at the Humber Bridge Threshold

On Wednesday 13th October a group from the LCHS Gardening Group led by 
Mrs Inman went back to Monks Wood near Dunholme, where they had 
planted trees in February and December 2009 to see how they are 
growing. And most of the oak, ash and alder are certainly growing 
well! The pupils then helped the Nettelham Woodland Trust further by 
spreading the rest of a truck-load of chippings onto a path crossing a 
new bridge in the heart of the developing woodland.
