Atlantic Rainforest

Land for Atlantic Rainforest - Expression of Interest

Thanks to a long-term partnership with Aviva and The Wildlife Trsuts, we are aiming to bring back some of the lost Atlantic rainforest across Northern Ireland - helping nature recover, tackling climate change, and inspiring communities to take action. 

We are now searching for suitable land to purchase, next to or close to existing rainforest patches, to establish new woodland and kickstart regeneration.

If you own or know of an area of land which might be suitable, please complete our expression of interest form below which sets out our essential criteria including size, location, type and access.

If this land fulfils our criteria, we will contact you directly to discuss further.
