Where we work

We’re the proud caretakers of more than 1,000 woods across the UK, from the Cornish coast to the Scottish highlands. Our head office is in Grantham, Lincolnshire, and we have regional offices in Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland. We’ve got boots on the ground too – our passionate network of staff and volunteers champion trees and woods in all parts of the UK.
