The Heath & Hampstead Society fights to preserve the wild and natural state of the Heath; to maintain the character and amenities of Hampstead; and to promote the study of local history, natural history and conservation.
WELCOME TO OUR NEW WEBSITE
You”ll find a brand new interactive map of the Heath to help you find your way should you want to know where you are and, as we build up its contents, enrich your knowledge of not only the Heath’s facilities but also its many facets: ecological and historical.
Stunning new imagery by Matt Maran built into the site showcases the beauty of the Heath. There’s a new members only area, and the facility to join and pay on-line. It is also configured to automatically resize however you choose to view it. And this is only the beginning,the new platform allows us to explore many new ways to fulfill our historic aim of safeguarding the heath.
