Stand up for Trees

We want to see a UK richer in native woods and trees, for people and wildlife

Our new clients help us to achieve our vision


For each new client we sponsor a tree

Thanks to Woodland Trust

More than 450 trees already protected


Make a Difference

Just 13% of the UK is covered with trees. That's low compared to the average European country that has 37%. Since the 1930s, more than half the UK's ancient woodland has gone. This rich, complex habitat dates back to medieval times and once swept in vast swathes across our countryside; today it covers just 2% of the UK. And we will lose even more as houses, roads, airports and railways expand. New diseases are attacking trees such as Oak, Horse Chestnut and now Ash being massively affected.

The effects are serious: 60% of our animal and plant species have declined in the past 50 years. Many are now endangered; some face extinction.

Here at BookCheck, we want to do our bit to help save our trees and wildlife. That’s why we dedicate a tree for every new client and for all clients providing a service review.

How many trees have we protected?

Since we started working with the Woodland Trust, BookCheck has been responsible for protecting the equivalent an acre. This helps to restore the traditional woodland ecosystem and supports a variety of wildlife that inhabits woodland areas.

"So far, BookCheck has protected an acre of trees"

We are pleased to be contributing, even in a small way, to restoring and protecting Britain’s woodland habitat, as well as the plants and animals that thrive in a their environment.
