He’s backing a community campaign to keep Craggy Wood in Staveley village in public hands, following the decision taken in 2016 by the Lake District National Park Authority (LDNPA) to sell the 40 acres of ancient woodland.
Leo, who lives in Staveley, said: "Over the years we have enjoyed walking in Craggy Wood. Now we have two young children, the delights of this ancient woodland and its rocky outcrops provide an ideal place to explore. Maintaining access and the freedom to play in Craggy Wood, as well as protecting the native wildlife, is why I whole heartedly support this bid to secure the woods on behalf of the local and wider community.”
