Woodland Trust

Working in partnership with the Woodland Trust 

The Woodland Trust is the UK’s leading woodland conservation charity, which owns and cares for more than 1,000 UK woods.  Every single one of which is free for everyone to visit and enjoy.

The UK is one of the least wooded countries in Europe with just 12% woodland compared to 44% on the continent. The charity’s long term goal is to double native UK woodland. Each year the Trust plants more than half a million trees, which provide vital habitats to some of the country's most endangered species, such as the dormouse and the red squirrel. 

The Trust’s aim is to involve as many people as possible in tree planting through events across the country. The charity’s Tree For all project, alone, has so far engaged more than 1.5 million children in planting over 6.5 million trees. The project has also sent out nearly 50,000 ‘Hedge and Copse’ packs to schools and youth groups, which has led to the planting of 130 miles of hedgerows across the UK.

Trees not only make our communities wonderful places to live but also absorb carbon dioxide, which helps in the fight against global warming. By supporting the Woodland Trust you are safe in the knowledge that all of the trees planted in the charity’s woods are cared for forever, for future generations to enjoy.
