Be part of nature’s recovery

There are many reasons people find their way to Make it Wild. To honour someone special. To take responsibility for their carbon impact. To spend time outdoors. Or simply to do something positive for nature.

Why Us?

Why
Make It Wild?

Make It Wild began in 2010 with one family who wanted to take action for nature in the face of the climate emergency.

What started small has grown through the support of thousands of individuals and families who care deeply about the future of the UK’s wildlife. Together, they are helping to restore woodlands, meadows and other vital habitats, creating places where nature can recover and people can return, season after season.

Tree Dedications

Tree Dedications with
Lasting Meaning

Planting a tree might feel like a small act, but it’s how wild woodlands begin. Each tree dedication supports the careful creation of new UK woodland, planted and looked after for the long term.



Many individuals and families choose to dedicate a tree to mark a life moment, remember someone special, or simply do something positive for nature. Over time, these individual actions come together to create thriving habitats for wildlife, stronger ecosystems and places people can return to, year after year.


This is how change happens. One thoughtful choice at a time. One tree at a time.

Carbon Offsetting

Understanding your
carbon impact

If carbon feels complicated, you’re not alone. You might be thinking about flights you’ve taken, miles you’ve driven, or the energy used to heat your home. Like most of us, you may already be making changes where you can, and finding other things harder to shift.

Carbon offsetting isn’t a substitute for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. But for the carbon that’s currently unavoidable, it can be a practical way to take responsibility and support nature recovery at the same time.

If you wish to proceed with our offsetting, you can choose from our nature location reserve locations across the UK, where we are creating new woodlands. If you’d like to, you will be able to arrange to visit and see the trees we’ve planted.

Our Carbon Emissions Calculator is a simple place to start. It’s there to help you understand where you stand and what practical steps you might take next.

It’s clear, transparent and designed to be used without pressure or judgement.

Memorial Trees

A living place of care, remembrance and recovery

For many people, becoming part of nature’s recovery is tied to memory, loss or reflection.



We have created a special dedicated memorial woodland. Here the cremation remains of your loved one can be placed amongst the roots of a newly planted tree. You and your family can attend the planting and return whenever you want to visit the tree as it grows.

For many families, planting a memorial tree offers something gentle and lasting. A living place to return to. A way for new life to grow, rooted in care and meaning. At Make It Wild, each tree becomes part of a wider landscape being restored for wildlife and future generations.

Testimonials

Stories From the Wild

People talk about a moment when something shifts. Standing among young trees. Hearing birdsong return. Watching children explore without rushing.

Those moments are why this work matters.

“Make it Wild have been instrumental in helping us work towards achieving our sustainability goals. They are our chosen tree planting partner, and they also demonstrated their expertise by helping us develop our carbon footprint calculator for events. This tool allows our clients to measure and reduce their event carbon footprint, making a significant impact on their sustainability efforts.”
