Payroll Giving is the easiest, most tax efficient way you can donate to the Woodland Trust. Your donations come straight from your gross salary each payday, meaning you receive immediate tax relief whilst the Woodland Trust receives regular, reliable donations which help us to create and care for our precious native woodland environment.

Woodland Carbon Payroll Giving
Perfect for anyone wishing to reduce their Carbon Footprint. Giving through Payroll Giving to our Woodland carbon project will enable us to plant new native woodland which removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as it grows.
A square metre of woodland is planted in the UK for every £1 you give. A monthly pledge of £20 will create enough new woodland over a year to remove 10 tonnes of carbon dioxide - the average annual emissions of someone living in the UK.
Sign up to give now.
For more information on the scheme, whether you're an employer or an employee, please contact Katherine on 01476 581112 or email
