Lang Craigs – it ours!
Today we announce that Lang Craigs is finally in the ownership of the Woodland Trust Scotland. The purchase marks the culmination of 18 months of fundraising, generously supported by the public and backed by some well known Scottish celebrities, including Harry Potter star, Robbie Coltrane, actress Elaine C Smith and TV personality Carol Smillie and Kirsty Young.
This magnificent site, spanning 240 ha (600 acres) will be the largest native woodland creation in Central Scotland. Over the coming years we will be planting 200,000 trees involving members of the local community and local school children.
In as little as 12 years this site, will be transformed into a flourishing young woodland providing a home for wildlife and fantastic green space, ideal for family days out, rambling picnics or simply quiet contemplation. Lang Craigs will belong as much to the people as the wildlife who call it home.
