Welcome to the Suffolk & Essex Coast & Heaths National Landscape
Welcome to National Landscapes – the new name for the UK’s designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Suffolk & Essex Coast & Heaths National Landscape stretches from Kessingland in North Suffolk, down to the Stour Estuary in North Essex.
The Suffolk & Essex Coast & Heaths National Landscape was designated in 1970 and is cared for by a Partnership, a team, and the thousands of people who live in, work in and visit it.
It is a diverse and ever changing landscape. You can enjoy a low-lying coast of shingle and sand, ancient woodland, forest, lowland heaths, farmland, valley meadowlands, estuaries, marshes, and historic towns and villages.
What does it mean to live and work in an National Landscape? We've put together some useful information to provide an introduction and everything you need to know!
Autumn volunteering opportunities

There are a range of activities, taking place in a number of locations. NO prior experience is needed and all training and equipment is provided on the day!
