Local business. Big challenge. Lasting impact. 🙌

What an achievement! A huge congratulations and thank you to the team at Woven & Woods for taking on the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge in support of Habitats & Heritage. 💚

They may be a small team, but they conquered all three peaks and have already raised £325 to help us protect local wildlife, green spaces and historic places.

Their fundraising page is still open, so if you'd like to support their incredible effort, there's still time to donate (link below)

Based in Richmond and Twickenham, Woven & Woods has been transforming homes across south-west London, Surrey and Berkshire for the past decade. We're so grateful they've chosen to support our work and go the extra mile for nature and heritage. 🫶

👏 Thank you, team Woven & Woods!
