We're taking on the management of Broadland Country Park - Norfolk Wildlife Trust

We are proud to announce that Broadland District Council (BDC) has formally handed over the management of Broadland Country Park to us.

This landmark partnership comes as we celebrate our centenary and marks a new chapter for the 140-acre site, ensuring its long-term future as a haven for both wildlife and the local community.

Since its opening, Broadland Country Park has become a popular green space for residents of Felthorpe, Horsford, and the wider Greater Norwich area. Having successfully established the park’s infrastructure, BDC is now transferring management to us to make use of its specialist expertise in protecting and restoring wildlife and providing people with opportunities to enjoy time in nature.

As part of this exciting new partnership, Broadland District Council will remain a key stakeholder in the park’s future, while we will serve as the principal managers of the site, bringing its extensive experience in managing land to benefit both nature and local communities.

As partners, we are significantly expanding Broadland Country Park by purchasing Drayton Drewray. This will add an additional 114 acres of land to the south of the site, effectively doubling the size of Broadland Country Park.
