Brickmakers Wood - Ipswich

Charity No. 1122514
Using the power of nature to support and help people living with complex health issues whilst transforming urban natural disasters into tranquil woodland for the community. Our Purpose:
• an active, hands-on outdoor educational facility for a wide range of children living with profound learning disabilities, critical needs or behavioural problems
• life and work skills for dis

engaged young people that lead to training and employment opportunities, including running a small skills enterprise cutting and selling wood for fuel.
• opportunities for volunteers to actively support their community providing regeneration of unused land and to develop their own mentoring, volunteering and educational skills.
• a free sanctuary for people living with Cancer or terminal illnesses. Eden-Rose Coppice profoundly affects the lives of people who use it.
• This year 180 children with profound learning disabilities have had their educational experience enriched and, for some, their aspirations dramatically raised.
• As a new venture, 25 long-term unemployed young people who are not in education or training have worked in the wood and contributed to a small business chopping and selling wood gaining confidence and work skills whilst contributing to our sustainability.
• Over 60 volunteers have worked on the site,
• 112 people with terminal illness have had a better quality of life in their final months. This helps them and their families and can reduce demand on public services where the alternative would be medical treatment for depression

A huge thank you to our fantastic Thursday volunteer team for another brilliant day at Brickmakers Wood. 💚

As always, your hard work, enthusiasm and friendship help keep this special woodland thriving for both people and wildlife.

We were also delighted to welcome visitors to the wood today, who spotted what we think is a beautiful Jersey tiger moth enjoying the buddleja flowers. A wonderful reminder that every visit can reveal something special, and that the habitats we’re creating are making a real difference for wildlife.

Thank you to everyone who joined us today. 🌿🦋

A huge thank you to the fantastic team from NETSCOUT, who joined us at Brickmakers Wood for a corporate volunteering afternoon.

They built and installed a new ramp through one of our working woodland areas — and they absolutely smashed it.

This project was extra special because NETSCOUT also donated all the materials, making the whole thing possible from start to finish.

The team were friendly, enthusiastic and incredibly hardworking, and the new ramp will make a real difference by helping volunteers, staff and community groups move more safely and easily around the site.

Thank you NETSCOUT — your support has made a lasting difference.

Yesterday at Brickmakers Wood we had a lovely moment celebrating our Ipswich volunteers, presenting many of them with their KAVS badges following our charity receiving The King’s Award for Voluntary Service.

You may have seen the news locally — we were incredibly proud to receive this national recognition.

But awards like this belong to the volunteers.

Thank you to every single person who has given their time, care and energy to Eden-Rose Coppice Trust — past and present. 🌿
