Heart of England Forest
Trees Call to Action Partnership
In July 2022, the Heart of England Forest, in partnership with Stratford-on-Avon, Warwick, and Wychavon District Councils, together launched the Trees Call to Action Project (TCAP), as a joint response to the climate and biodiversity emergencies that our respective Councils have declared.
The partnership worked collaboratively with landowners and local communities to find ways to increase tree cover across the landscape, supporting with all aspects of tree planting and maintenance, from identifying suitable locations, appropriate funding, tree stocks, and long-term care.
The project was possible thanks to a grant from the Trees Call to Action Fund developed by Defra in partnership with the Forestry Commission and delivered by the Heritage Fund.
This three-year project has now ended after successfully planting over a quarter of a million trees!
