94% of households within England and Wales are within one mile of an accessible woodland, despite the loss of almost half our ancient woodlands in the last 80 years.

Access to woodlands isn't just limited to the countryside. Across built-up areas there are, on average, 5.4 woodlands accessible from each household.

Households in major towns and cities such as Milton Keynes and Harlow enjoy excellent access, with an average of 13.1 and 11.5 woodlands within one mile of home.

Forests and woods are known to boost physical and mental wellbeing. The vibrant colour changes of autumn make this the perfect time for a visit. Source: Dataloft, Natural England, Open Street Map, ONS
