A firm has made a donation of almost £1,000 towards the restoration of one of the UK's most stunning forests.
TreeTwist, based at Aunby, near Careby, sells handmade woollen scarves, bracelets and clips, and for each one sold a donation is made to Trees for Life, a Scottish charity which aims to restore the Caledonian Forest to an area of 1500 square kilometres in the Highlands west of Inverness.
"We are very grateful to TreeTwist for their generosity," said Alan Watson Featherstone, Trees for Life founder and executive director.
"This latest donation brings the total they have raised for us since their scheme began to almost £4,500.
"This kind of support makes a huge difference to our work in reversing deforestation and biodiversity loss and in tackling climate change."
Sex Maxted, of TreeTwist, said: "We are extremely proud to be working with Trees for Life.
"Our aim via TreeTwist is to make tree planting fun by giving the customer a reminder of their tree which can be worn and enjoyed every day.
"Through our work with a terrific, supportive Trees for Life, that vision has become a reality."
