Trees for Climate
Trees for Climate is a multi-million pound woodland creation programme with one of the most competitive grant schemes for tree planting available today.
The programme is part of the national Government-led Nature for Climate fund and is being delivered by England’s Community Forests, a partnership of organisations with years of experience helping landowners to plan, deliver and manage woodland creation schemes across the country.
As an expert advisor, delivery partner and funder in one local organisation, your Community Forest is there to help landowners, farmers and their agents you enhance your land and business through woodland creation.
The Trees for Climate programme is providing social, economic and environmental transformation across the country. Every landowner that works with us is playing their part to help address climate change, whilst also improving the environment and local area for communities to benefit from for years to come.
