We love getting involved in amazing projects. The Queen’s Green Canopy (QGC) is a unique tree planting initiative created to mark Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee in 2022.

We knew we wanted to be part of the celebrations and to “Plant a Tree for the Jubilee”. Thousands have taken part across the UK, and each and every one of our 12 beautiful locations has joined in. Take a look to see what’s been planted close to you.

Forest Holidays at Bedgelert invited a local school to get involved and plant their cherry tree in honour of Her Majesty. Mrs Williams, their Headteacher, commented:

‘All the children took part in digging and planting and enjoyed being outside and participating in the event. We look forward to observing the tree growing in future years’.

 

The planting of trees will create a legacy in honour of The Queen, which will go on to benefit future generations connect with nature. That’s something that’s very close to our heart.

As a business, we want our woodlands to thrive so that our guests and visitors can enjoy the freedom to connect with nature. It makes sense, therefore for us to look after and sustain the forests. We wholeheartedly support the commitment outlined in the Government’s 25 Year Environment Plan, for us all to be:

"...the first generation to leave the natural environment in a better state than we found it and pass on to the next generation a natural environment protected and enhanced for the future."
