The Woodland Trust, based in Grantham, is the UK's largest woodland conservation charity. It protects woods and trees, preventing the loss of irreplaceable habitat; restores damaged ancient woods, irreplaceable ecosystems so nature and people can thrive; creates quality native woods and plants native trees to benefit nature, climate and people; and cares for over 1,000 woods, keeping them open for people to explore and enjoy.

And there are informative talks and workshops too, including Understanding Your Protein Needs as a Vegan: Separating Fact from Fiction with Chibuikem Osuchukwu and The Secrets to a Healthy Vegan Lifestyle with Charles Roswess.
