Friends of Hagg Wood was formed in 1996 to preserve, protect and enhance the natural plant and animal life in the wood for the community. FHW holds monthly conservation working parties in the wood and other enjoyable activities, including illustrated talks, social events and visits to places of conservation interest.
The wood was established as a Community Woodland in 2003.

Inspiration: "trees enhance our lives and lift our spirits. They
shelter our wildlife and
temper our climate......
The planting of trees is a sign of our confidence in the future.
It is a compliment paid by our generation to its successors and marks
out-gratitude
to those who paid us that compliment in the past."
(DoE/MAFF, 1995, pi 18) White Paper, Rural England, 1995.
