S2S Group has agreed to donate £5,000 in partnership with Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust (YDMT), which will be used to restore woodland in Ormsgill Wood, near Airton.
The donation will be used to help fund the planting of 500 broadleaf trees, ensuring that Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust can continue to support the people, landscape, and wildlife of this special area.
Alan Dukinfield, Commercial Director at S2S, is proud to support the work done by Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust and believes that the partnership will not only help the environment but also the wellbeing of staff who will be involved in the whole process of tree planting and maintenance of the trees and woodland over the coming years.
Alan said: “S2S Group has set itself ambitious targets in order to reach carbon neutrality by 2030. In addition to working in partnership with Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust, S2S has signed up to the Science-Based Targets initiative, committing to a target that aligns with limiting global warming to 1.5°C.
“We are so pleased to support the amazing work done at Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust and the planting of these 500 trees in Airton is just part of our plans to improve our environmental performance and biodiversity.”
