Cambridgeshire based re-wilding charity, Creating Nature’s Corridors is on a mission to plant over 30,000 trees and hedging plants between November 2025 and March 2026 including the creation of Rory's Wood, a new 35 acre woodland at Grafham Water.
Creating Nature’s Corridors now enjoys widespread interest from companies keen to put forward staff for volunteer planting days, team building and to demonstrate a commitment to the CSR agenda and offsetting their carbon footprint. However, with ambitious planting plans in place for the next season, the charity is keen to seek out additional corporate partners who, in addition to providing volunteers, are open to providing financial support.
Founder, Vhari Russell comments, “We’re delighted with the progress that we’ve made to date and the positive impact the charity’s endeavours are having in terms of improving the natural environment whilst also ensuring local communities are able to enjoy the well-documented benefits associated with having access to green spaces. Looking ahead, we need more companies to demonstrate a credible approach to corporate social responsibility. Rather than viewing the charity as a tick-box exercise to simply secure volunteering spaces, we’d like to encourage more businesses to fully immerse themselves in the ethos of what we’re trying to achieve and offer financial support that will fund future planting projects. We’re currently faced with raising £60,000 so all donations, no matter how small are welcome!.”
With lots more trees and hedging plants to get in the ground during the 2025/26 planting season, the charity needs as many volunteers as possible to help make this happen. Please take a look at the website to view the upcoming planting dates and sign up to help if you can! There is also a facility to donate via the website too. Thank you.
