Sponsor a tree at Arlington Court

To celebrate 70 years of the Trust looking after Arlington, we're planting 7,000 new trees to help wildlife and nature thrive

Newly planted saplings in the Arlington Court woodlands

How can you help?

If you sponsor a tree, you'll be helping wildlife and nature to thrive on the estate. £15 will buy a tree and you can choose to dedicate it to a year that is special to you from the last 70 years. You’ll receive a card to keep, or give as a gift to someone special. 

Once you have used the form below to sponsor a tree, please contact us at arlingtoncourt@nationaltrust.org.uk and let us know the following:

  • How many trees you have bought
  • Which years between 1949-2019 you are dedicating your chosen tree (or trees) to
  • The address that you'd like us to send the card to
  • Who you are dedicating the tree (or trees) to

We want to keep things in the woodlands as natural as possible. This means that your tree wil be marked on a special estate map so you can see where it is planted, however we will leave the trees in the wood unmarked and as nature intends. You'll have the knowledge that you did something really special for wildlife, nature and Arlington’s future – a truly green gift.
