Collaborative and Inclusive

Nurturing and leading a wide range of partnership activity. Working with and for partners wherever possible. Resourcing individuals, those within communities of interest and those with poor access to trees to be a part of the Forest movement and activity in the way they will benefit.

Being excellent listeners and being highly responsive, through empathy and action, to need, ideas and feedback. Embedding inclusivity and accessibility consideration into every activity we do. Taking more steps to evaluate and increase the diversity across our team, volunteers and groups we work with.

Positive and Solution-Focussed

Always looking towards action that creates positive results, focussing on potential solutions and sharing inspiration to take action. Progressive. We are always ready to adapt and find a new solution where needed. We don’t get stuck on barriers or negativity, we seek to find a resolution that works. We are agile. We get things done!

Sustainable

Embedding the long-term impacts and foreseeable requirements into everything we do to ensure benefits are optimised and will endure. We apply robust planning to all our projects. We focus on the right trees in the right places with the right management planning and community support and we continue to monitor. Our activity is often based on giving people experiences in a way that they can sustain this into the future, rather than short term.

Honest, Fair and Transparent

We are open about what we do, the impact, our limitations and the learning we gain from our experiences. We seek out and share accurate data and information.
