We all need trees, but trees need help now more than ever before. That’s where we come in. We want a UK rich in woods and trees, for people and wildlife. We rely on the generosity and enthusiasm of supporters like you to help us protect, restore and plant woods and trees.

Everyone who stands up for trees with us – whether as a member, by giving a donation, by offering us their time or by spreading the word – should have a positive and rewarding experience and know how much we value them.

Our promise

We promise to be honest and transparent about where your money goes and why we ask for donations. We will show you what a difference you are making.

Who are the Woodland Trust?

We are the UK’s largest woodland conservation charity. We’re passionate about woods and trees. We work to transform our landscapes, joining up fragile and fragmented habitats. We campaign to save threatened woodland and we own and care for more than 1,000 publicly accessible woods. We want everyone to have access to woodland and we want to make the UK a healthier, better place to live.
