Gipton Wood 2050 headline results

Thank you to everyone who completed our consultation survey and provided feedback on proposals for Gipton Wood.

We’re thrilled that 92% of respondents supported all or most of the proposals.

We’re now working through the feedback to look at where we can improve the proposals, or where we may need to change or adjust them.

We will provide a full breakdown of results at our AGM in April, and then publish them here.

Q: In general, do you support the proposed plans?

The proposals aim to enhance and improve Gipton Wood so that it can continue to be a thriving woodland for nature and our community through to 2050.

Find out more about the proposals here.
