Dear Supporter, Sue Holden at the Sandridge site

You've probably heard by now that the site of our plans to create the largest new native forest in England is near Sandridge, St Albans in Hertfordshire.

I was at the site just last Monday and it is spectacular. We plan to plant over 600,000 trees on this incredible site to create a new flourishing forest which everyone will be able to enjoy in just a few years' time.

But, we still need your urgent support because we only have until the end of September to raise the funds necessary to complete the purchase of this site.

Please help us make this new forest a reality if you can.

Also, you can now view a video of me talking about the new site!

Kind regards,
Sue Holden
Chief executive
