WELCOME
The Friends of Brockenhurst was established in 1957 and strives to achieve its main goal of trying to protect, improve and develop the character and amenities of Brockenhurst and surrounding areas for the benefit of residents and the wider community.
A NOTE FROM OUR CHAIR...
As the new Chair of Friends of Brockenhurst, I believe it is important that the Society supports, contributes, and enhances life in our village. Now, more than ever, we need to focus on people, place, and purpose, with the Society playing a central role in activities, events, and engagement for all, whilst still retaining the unique historical aspect of the village.
Whilst we must advance with the times for the benefit of Brockenhurst residents and visitors of all ages, our focus is on social participation, community involvement and kindness in all that we do.
The whole Committee are here to support the village and its residents and we would welcome any comments and ideas from you on how we can deliver more at this time of change for our village.

OUR MISSION
Formed in 1957 the Society exists to protect, improve and develop the character and amenities of Brockenhurst and the surrounding forest area for the benefit of the residents of the village and the wider community.
It concentrates especially, but not exclusively, on matters related to planning, environment and the welfare of the community.
It will seek to influence local and other governmental bodies to advance its objectives.
In particular the Society will carry out regular and detailed reviews of all regional, structure and local plans, together with local planning applications. Representations will be made as appropriate.
