An appeal on behalf of the Woodland Trust.

The Centenary Woods project will involve the planting of millions of trees, including four flagship woods – one each in Northern Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales. The trees planted will represent the many lives lost and affected by the war.

Northern Ireland’s Centenary Wood will be located on the banks of the River Faughan. It will comprise 40,000 native trees as a lasting tribute to people from across the island of Ireland who lost their lives or loved ones in World War One. Brackfield Wood will be a place of tranquility, reflection and natural beauty.

To find out more about the Centenary Woods project, or how to get involved with a special tree planting event on 07 November, telephone 028 9127 5787 or visit the Woodland Trust’s website.
