A gift for nature lovers: dedicate a tree

Over the next few years, we will be replanting the many tens of thousands of trees lost in recent winter storms across Scotland. This Father’s Day, dedicate a tree to your dad and we’ll send a personalised certificate for you to give to them.

Dedicate a tree today

Every donation helps us plant a tree in one of the many woodlands we’re restoring across Scotland. £7.50 will help us plant one sapling; £75 will help us plant ten!

Your gift will help us restore our damaged forests and restore Scotland’s beautiful green spaces, so that natural ecosystems can continue to thrive in the future.

Handcrafted with care, this single malt whisky boasts a smooth and complex flavour profile, with notes of caramel, vanilla and oak.

A gift for remembering someone special: dedicate a view

We know that, for many, Father’s Day can be a day spent remembering someone special. At the National Trust for Scotland, we are custodians of all the treasured places in our care. By dedicating a view in memory of your loved one, you will make them a custodian of our places too. With six stunning views to choose from, you can dedicate a view at the place that they loved most or the place that carries the most meaning for you.

Every dedication made in memory of your loved one will help us to keep on caring for the wild landscapes, peaceful gardens and historic buildings in our charity’s care for generations to come.
