Greenstages were developed by Realife Trust and the National Trust at Hatfield Forest in 2001 and are part of Realife's vision as a charity to support people to build more inclusive communities by organising their own street parties, festivals and events with little or no money available. The majority of the events we support are free of charge and we can do this because our paying customers put enough back in the coffers to keep the whole project rolling - simple!
