Forestry England’s partnership programme, the Future Forests Collective, offers businesses the opportunity to support a range of projects across their portfolio.

As well as supporting tree planting initiatives, partners can invest in the gathering and analysis of environmental DNA (eDNA) samples to bring a new level of scientific rigour and understanding to the way land managers approach, measure and report on biodiversity.

Meera Hindocha, Forestry England head of partnerships, said: “For the first time, businesses can work with Forestry England on advancing our understanding of our biodiversity and forest ecosystems by investing in eDNA technology. By using science and technology to bring innovative solutions to the problems we face, Forestry England and their partners will play a pivotal role in restoring nature for this generation and the next.”

Businesses can also choose to invest in staff wellbeing through Forestry England’s employee volunteer days and create a programme of client entertainment or customer incentives through the live music series, Forest Live, winter lights trails and outdoor cinema events programme.
