Forest Heath is a local government district in Suffolk, England. Its council is based in Mildenhall. Other towns in the district include Newmarket.

The District's name reflects the fact that it contains parts of both Thetford Forest and the heathlands of Breckland. The district was formed on April 1, 1974, under the Local Government Act 1972, by a merger of the Newmarket urban district and Mildenhall Rural District.
