One step greener with every swipe
Learn and explore
Trees generate oxygen, store carbon, stabilise the soil, are home to wildlife and make our landscape look lovely. The UK needs more of them – lots more! Why? Because it’s the least wooded country in Europe.
Woods are our richest wildlife habitat
Woods are home to thousands of our most precious species, from dormice and glow worms to bluebells and butterflies. An ancient oak can support around 1,000 species.
They’re in danger
Deforestation to make way for roads, housing and agriculture means only 2% of the UK’s precious ancient woodland remains. Once lost, it can’t be replaced.
Your swipe can make a difference
The Woodland Trust plants trees on sites with pockets of ancient woodland that are particularly species rich. So when you swipe, you’re helping to make this happen.
Help us spread the word...
The more IKEA FAMILY members we get to swipe, the more forests we’ll create. So tell your friends and family!
