Plant a tree this Christmas with stunning e-card

December 6, 2022

‘Tis the season of goodwill and what could be more joyful than the gift of life?

Give back to nature this festive season by sending a beautiful South Downs e-card to your friends, family or business contacts.

A donation of £5 could plant a new tree in the National Park.

Cards can be personalised with your message and scheduled to go out automatically at a date you decide.

Businesses and organisations can send out the e-cards in bulk to customers or suppliers, even adding their logo or an image.

All donations will go towards the South Downs National Park Trust, the National Park’s official independent charity, for the Tree for the Downs initiative.

“We’re really excited to have launched this e-card initiative,” explained Nick Heasman, who leads the ‘Our South Downs’ team that is working to help create a sustainable economy in the National Park.

“It’s a way of giving back to nature and is a very sustainable alternative to paper cards.

“Trees provide us with clean air to breathe, boost our soils and provide havens for so many birds, mammals and insects, so a £5 donation, or more if you are able, really can go a long way and leave a lasting legacy!

“With your donation, we’ll put the right tree, in the right place.”

There are five striking designs to choose from.
