Bristol Memorial Woodland Trust

Donations

Bristol Memorial Woodland Trust relies for its income on donations and legacies not only from the public but also from Bristol Memorial Woodlands Limited.

Families whose loved ones rest in the woodland are invited to make a donation for the future upkeep. Legacy donations are particularly welcome. Creating and preserving an ecological reserve on this scale is expensive. The limited company supports the trust by making donations each time a family buys a plot. It also makes discretionary donations annually to support the work of the Trust.

The work of the Trust and the ongoing management of the site is for public benefit and for those who visit to remember their loved ones. Please help this remarkable project. Managing expectations and this tranquil setting comes at a cost and your help is essential.

Please help the Trust, or find out more, by contacting the team on 01454 414 999 or at admin@memorialwoodlands.com.

The planting of a commemorative tree is an ancient practice steeped in tradition and meaning. It is a symbol of continued life, strength and family connections. It gives relatives and friends a memorial to visit which they can enjoy watching change with the seasons and grow through the years. Equally, it is a gift to the woodlands as they continue to grow and mature.

Our trees are tended and cared for by our onsite grounds team who, with great care and skill, work to create and to preserve our woodland.
