Forestry England have a future opportunity for new site partnerships to deliver activities and events at Jeskyns Community Woodland in the East England Forest District. The activity / event providers must deliver family leisure/wellbeing activities which add to our visitor experience onsite and increase stay duration.

Forestry England are currently scoping our requirements to ensure that the future tender documentation and specification accurately reflects the offerings of the outdoor activities/events market. We invite interested companies from the market to register their interest in this future requirement and provide feedback on potential clarifications on the feasibility of our emerging plans. We also invite suppliers to provide suggestions on potential attractions that they believe would be a suitable fit with the Jeskyns Community Woodland: https://www.forestryengland.uk/jeskyns Jeskyns Community Woodland is located near Cobham, Kent, and is home to 360 acres of newly planted woodlands, meadows and orchards.
