High Trenhouse Enhances “Green” Credentials

High Trenhouse has for many years invited people to sponsor a tree or two to offset the carbon they release by journeying to our Malhamdale venue. This has been so successful that there is little space left – and the result is a wonderful habitat and burgeoning wildlife.
 
Now we invite organisations who use High Trenhouse to participate in a wider scheme to plant woodlands in the Dales. We will work with established local organisations to plant and maintain sustainable woodlands in this lovely area.  This is a wonderful and rewarding way of making up for your carbon footprint.
 
As a rough guide you can offset your carbon if you allocate 1% of total travel costs to tree planting. A typical group arriving from different parts of the country by different modes of transport will generate 2 tonnes of CO2. To offset this will require the planting of 10 trees. Sponsorship can be in multiples of £100 or 10 trees at a time.
 
Even If you are not planning to come to High Trenhouse you are still welcome to participate in this scheme to offset the carbon you use elsewhere.
