Giving in celebration

Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, anniversary, wedding or life achievement – we are so grateful for your support of our charity at this special time.

Donating to – or fundraising for – the National Trust for Scotland whilst celebrating a special moment or milestone is a truly amazing way to protect Scotland’s nature, heritage and beauty. Our charity relies on donations to continue to care for, protect and make accessible the special places and spaces in our care – we couldn’t do what we do without your support. Thank you so much for thinking about supporting our work in this way.

There is lots of information below about giving in celebration, but please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions. You can contact us by emailing fundraising@nts.org.uk or calling 0131 458 0342.

Dedicate a Tree

No matter what you’re celebrating, why not dedicate a tree in honour of this special moment? For every dedication, we’ll send you a personalised certificate that you can keep or share as a precious gift.

You’ll also be able to add an online dedication to our ‘virtual woodland’ and share this with your loved ones as part of the celebrations!

If you’re planning to support our charity on your big day, we’d love to hear from you! Please email fundraising@nts.org.uk

Dedicate a tree wedding favours

If you’d like to help protect Scotland’s woodlands while celebrating your special day, you can now dedicate a tree on behalf of all your guests.

When you choose to dedicate a tree as your wedding favours, we will send you a certificate and information of the tree planting project your special day has supported, as well as digital wedding favour cards. If you’d like us to send printed favour cards, all we ask is for you to make a donation to cover this cost.

The amount you donate is up to you: a donation of £105 will help us plant 15 trees, £280 will help us plant 40 trees and £700 will help us plant 100 trees across Scotland’s woodlands.

If you’d like to find out more, please email fundraising@nts.org.uk
