Additional notesHill Holt Wood and Norton Big Wood are jewels in the Lincolnshire countryside that often go unnoticed by the hundreds of people that pass their gates every day. First time visitors often comment that they have always wondered what was down these lanes off the A46, and when they arrive they are always hugely impressed and often overwhelmed by the beauty of the buildings and the work that the small Ranger team do at the woods. Hill Holt Wood is a Social Enterprise; it focuses on changing people on peoples lives within a sustainable, environmental setting. The organisation, quite simply, puts people first and works in a holistic way with the emphasis on positive change and social inclusion. The people that work here really embrace the social enterprise vision, it is more than a job it is a way of life and the team embodies the spirit of a family. This matters because whatever strand of the business we are working at it is always done with a caring and conscientious attitude because the outcome always reflects on the integrity of the team as a whole. This has particular relevance when dealing with people who are preparing to say goodbye to loved ones. From an environmental perspective the woods are well managed and host a wide variety of flora and fauna, the woodland management plan focuses on and encourages biodiversity with the ultimate aim of establishing a balance. It is this balance what we see in nature that we work hard to encourage and nurture in our staff and young learners that we hope all will allow to grow and develop into positive and happy people. I do hope that you also believe in this ethos as the experience that you will have at Hill Holt Wood and Norton Big Wood will be like no other; memorable, personal and shared with loved ones and friends. This is what sets us apart, we focus on the whole business on putting others first and have a genuine and caring attitude. For us as a Social Enterprise, it is not about money it is about the person. The Burial Area The area that is being used for burials is a small clearing surrounded by Birch, Ash and Pine and is dominated by beautiful mature Oak trees. These stand like sentinels watching over the glade and act to preserve its peace and tranquillity. You are able to select an area for burial from choices provided by the burial team. For those who have chosen cremation we have an area where you are able to bury the caskets of ashes, this is adjacent to the main burial area. This is also a charming area where we allow the scattering of ashes, if this is something that you would like to do.
