Join the Friends of the Forest of Avon Trust

Becoming a Friend is a great way to help grow this new, independent organisation dedicated to trees in your local area. Contributions directly help the Trust to provide Free Trees for communities; promote the Garden Forest and deliver Wood School: engaging all ages and abilities in their local woodlands. It also helps us campaign for more trees locally. 

Contributions start at £3/ month for a household or in multiples of £3/ month for each 4 members of a school board of governors, or local council management committee.

As well as directly supporting a new and local charity, benefits include:

• A regular newsletter and all other Trust publications
• A free tree/shrub (and sticker) for those joining the Garden Forest
• An annual sticker for display (corporate members)
• Free advice on tree planting and maintenance
• Half price Tree Dedications.

The more you give, the more we can do. For example, in a year

• £6 per month buys 12 packs of 6 leaflets to help all sections of the community easily access local woodlands
• £12 per month purchases 30 locally grown trees to be planted across the area
• £25 per month pays for 15 metres of quality path and helps to open up local woodlands to all sections of the community
• £50 per month funds woodland discovery days for 30 children from inner city communities
