Mab Lane Community Woodland in Liverpool was an under-used and
frequently flooded field. It was transformed into a woodland that
is a positive asset for the local community. The transformation won
the Neighbourhood Improvement Project Award in the
It's Our World Merseyside Environment Awards. |

The National Housing Federation ran the
What We Are Proud Of Awards. The High Hazels
project won the East Midlands Best Contribution To The Local
Community Award.
An independent judge said that the project is a "fantastic
example of what a housing provider should be proud of! It ticked
all the boxes. It's innovative as it's not a traditional housing
service. Wide-reaching because it has a significant impact on the
local community. And it tackles socio-economic through helping
residents get back into work. It also encouraged volunteering in
the community and is a true example of localism!"
