Trees for Life's vision is to rewild the Scottish Highlands by saving and restoring the globally unique Caledonian Forest and all the wildlife it contains. Only 1% of the original extent of the forest remains. The charity aims to create a wild forested landscape from valley to mountain top, where wilderness and people thrive, through three key activities:• Bringing the wild, native forest back – through developing innovative approaches to native tree propagation and planting to the management of established forest.• Giving a helping hand to forest wildlife – reintroducing missing species, such as red squirrel, to the wild forest.• Inspiring communities and individuals of all ages and abilities to be involved in rewilding – helping to improve their health and wellbeing and providing opportunities for new skills development.Since planting its first tree, Trees for Life has planted nearly 1.5 million more with the help of over 5,000 volunteers.It was registered as a charity in 1993.
