Dear Supporter, 
I’ve
just returned from a visit to Willesley Wood in the National Forest.
The 30,000 trees we planted there 15 years ago now look really amazing
– some are over 25ft high - it feels like a wood already. I
was accompanied by one of the people who planted some of those trees
and her excitement at having created such a fantastic place was
infectious.
If you’d
like to share in this feeling, you could contribute to the creation of our
new native wood in the foothills of Cadair Idris – the last stronghold of the
Welsh princes. For more details see our first story below....
I’d also like to give
you an update on our Brede High Woods appeal. We’ve had a great response and
we're very close to our original target now. But, due to being unsuccessful in
securing one grant, we now need to raise an additional £400,000 to purchase this
site. Please help us if you can
Your support makes a real difference!
Kind regards,
Sue Holden, chief executive
PS Thanks to everyone who responded to
our recent story about the Bexhill-Hasting link road. East Sussex County
Council received over 1800 objections, which we hope will make a real difference
when the case comes before the planning committee. |
