What Trees for Life does

What we do

An ambitious proposal to form a coalition of landowners and communities across a large area of the central Highlands.

This project is saving Caledonian pinewood remnants by encouraging their active management.

We carefully capture red squirrels from their strongholds and transport them to new forests.

We are working towards releasing a social herd of wild tauros cattle, similar to the ancient and extinct aurochs, at our Dundreggan estate.

Share your views on the proposal to relocate beavers to Glen Affric.

Lynx to Scotland is a comprehensive study to accurately evaluate the social feasibility of returning lynx.

Enhance the availability of native trees from western Scotland by collecting seeds.

Locating and assessing the health of lost Caledonian pinewood remnants across the Highlands in partnership with Woodland Trust Scotland.

Mapping the location, condition and health of one of Scotland’s rarest native trees in partnership with the Cairngorms National Park Authority.

We have planted nearly two million trees and our work will continue until we have planted millions more.

We work with individuals, businesses and other charities to bring people closer to nature.

Our flagship rewilding estate – home to our tree nursery and the world’s first rewilding centre.
