FUTURE TREES TRUST CIO

We envision that all productive forests and woodlands in the UK will contain a proportion of selected or genetically improved trees to enhance diversity and resilience to climate change, pests and diseases. The wood they produce will be used in the construction of net zero carbon buildings, locking up carbon for decades and helping to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

  • This Charity has changed registration and some of the financial and donation history pertains to the previous entity
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • This charity appears to be dormant
