Dedicate a tree in Lancashire
Our rivers have stories to tell. Once, they ran free and full of life, their banks shaded by woodlands, their waters teeming with fish, insects, and birds. But over the years, human activity has taken its toll. Now, many of our rivers are struggling. Summer heat warms their waters to dangerous levels, floods rush through landscapes with devastating force, and fragile, but vital habitats vanish.
Lancashire Woodland Connect is helping our rivers tell a new story. By planting trees along their banks, we’re restoring the natural balance. Trees cool the water, slow floods, capture carbon, improve water quality, and create safe homes for wildlife. They’re nature’s guardians, protecting rivers and landscapes and connecting communities with nature.
When you dedicate a tree through Ribble Rivers Trust, you become part of this story. For £15, your tree will be planted in Lancashire, contributing to half a million new trees across the county by the end of our ten-year campaign. Your gift isn’t just a donation. It’s a lasting legacy, a way to celebrate a special person, mark a milestone, or give a meaningful, environmentally positive gift.
Each tree is part of a growing network of woodlands, reconnecting fragmented habitats, providing shade, shelter, and food for wildlife, and strengthening rivers against the pressures of climate change. Once we have planted your tree during our winter tree planting season, we’ll give you a map of your woodland, and updates on your woodland’s progress each year until maturity.
Every tree you dedicate brings us closer to a greener, healthier Lancashire where rivers thrive, wildlife flourishes, and communities can enjoy the natural world. Together, we can write a brighter chapter for Lancashire’s rivers, one tree at a time.
