The Armed Forces Memorial, and its immediate surroundings, will be closed to visitors from 10am on Friday 8 August to 5pm on Sunday 17 August to allow us to prepare to host the national VJ Day 80 commemorations. The rest of the Arboretum's 150-acres will remain open to visitors as normal. We are sorry for any inconvenience this might cause and appreciate your understanding during this time.
As a charity we rely on the generous support of our donors, supporters and sponsors. We could not survive without them.
Our earliest days were made possible with land gifted from Tarmac, trees donated from the National Forest Company, and funding from the Millennium Commission. Since then, we have become part of the Royal British Legion and we receive a generous grant each year towards our upkeep. However, we still need our supporters as much as ever.
