Woodlands is located in Acomb York and has 125 properties for rent and shared ownership comprising 2 and 3 bedroomed houses and flats.

The estate does not currently have a residents group - if you are interested in helping to set one up then please contact us.
Woodlands has a community improvement budget which, in 2009 was used to provide skips for the removal of large and bulky items. The priorities for improvements will be agreed through a postal vote. Every resident will have the opportunity to put forward their ideas which will be costed and returned to all residents for prioritising.
You should receive your proposal form in summer 2010.
