Groundwork Northamptonshire is proud to manage and protect Northamptonshire green spaces that sit at the heart of our communities. Whether you’re looking to connect with nature, volunteer your time, or simply enjoy some fresh air, our sites offer something for everyone.

The Green Patch – Kettering
A thriving and essential community asset, The Green Patch is more than a garden—it’s a place where people come together, learn new skills, and feel part of something bigger. This award-winning green space includes:
- After-school clubs, volunteer days and community events
- A successful ‘veg box’ scheme offering affordable, fresh produce
- Polytunnels, orchards, wildlife areas and a play space
Twywell Hills & Dales – East Northamptonshire
Situated on the southern edge of Rockingham Forest, Twywell Hills and Dales is a landscape rich in history and biodiversity. Managed by Groundwork Northamptonshire in partnership with The Land Trust, it is a well-loved site for walkers, nature lovers and families. It is famed as the best place in the county for butterflies and includes peaceful meadows, wooded trails and dramatic open views.


Northamptonshire green spaces
