The Woodland Trust is the UK’s leading woodland conservation charity, with over 500,000 members and supporters and more than 1,000 sites, covering over 26,000 hectares, all over the UK. Its aims are to prevent further loss of ancient woodland, restore and improve the woodland biodiversity, expand new native woodland and increase people’s understanding and enjoyment of woodland. It does this through lobbying and campaigning, acquisition, restoration and management of woods, creating new woods, and promoting the benefits of woodland.
