The Land Trust

The Land Trust is a British charity, based in Warrington, Cheshire, which owns or manages open spaces restored from derelict land for public benefit. Its vision is "to improve the quality of people’s lives by creating sustainable, high quality green spaces that deliver environmental, social and economic benefits".

The Land Restoration Trust was created in 2004 to ensure that restoration projects for derelict land would have a long-term future. It became independent as The Land Trust in 2009/10.

Projects
the Land Trust owns or manages more than 2,000 ha in more than 50 spaces in England, and is developing projects in Scotland.

Spaces include:
 * Northumberlandia, a land sculpture near Cramlington, Northumberland
 * Phoenix Park, Thurnscoe, on the former Hickleton Main Colliery in South Yorkshire
 * Braeburn Park, a nature reserve in London Borough of Bexley

The Land Trust is working with Buglife in a project to conserve pollinating insects, initially on the trust's Yorkshire sites.
