Fund manager & award size

Woodland Trust, funded by Lloyds Bank

The award size depends on the specific project. The fund can subsidise up to 75% of the cost of the trees, tree protection, advice and guidance if you choose to plant the trees yourself. If you live in England, Wales or Northern Ireland and would like a contractor to plant the trees, the scheme can arrange this for areas of 1 hectare (2.5 acres) and above and cover up to 60% of costs involved. See the fund website for additional details.

Eligibilty

The fund is available for any landowners or farmers to plant a woodland on their land if they are not already in receipt of funding for planting a woodland and meet the eligibility criteria. Projects must plant: at least 0.5 hectare (1.25 acres) of new woodland with 1,000-1,600 trees per hectare. See the fund website for additional details.
