Saltburn Valleys CIO

The Saltburn Valleys CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) was formed in 2017 to promote the conservation, protection and improvement of the land, gardens, woodlands, walkways, play areas, waterways, wildlife and natural environment, historic monuments and properties in the Saltburn Valleys.

For our charitable purposes, the Saltburn Valleys are defined as the areas of open space and woodlands situated in and around Saltburn-by-the-Sea. They include Hazel Grove, Saltburn Valley Gardens, Saltburn Gill and a series of attached woodlands.
