1 - 5 About us
Who we are
Our vision is of a Scotland in which trees and native woodlands are thriving for our wildlife, communities and climate.
Our purpose
To transform landscapes using the power of trees.
Our priorities
- Restore threatened woodland habitats
- Enhance urban green spaces
- Support research and innovative thinking
We have successfully completed a three-year pilot, raising the profile of native woodland restoration and creation in Scotland and embarked on a new £10 million programme to improve Scotland’s cities through urban forestry. We now have bold ambitions to scale up our work across Scotland by developing new and innovative ideas and approaches that have the potential to significantly enhance and expand Scotland’s native woods.
Our culture and values
We are unified by one vision and one set of values for the way we work: Curiosity, Respect, Collaboration, Professionalism.
- Be Curious. We ask questions, are interested and continue learning, whether this is for ourselves, with others in mind or being part of a wider world view.
- Be Respectful. We have regard for environmental and social beliefs, understanding that the range of views of others, no matter their age, status or background, are as important as our own.
- Work Collaboratively. We create dynamic joint working that recognises, applies and adapts around different processes, working relationships, opinions and skillsets.
- Be Professional. We ensure that our standards of work, dedication, attitude and communication reflect positively on our organisation.
