Reversing deforestation is the number-one strategy for stopping global warming. With the current rate of deforestation, the worlds rainforests will be gone in less than 100 years. Trees are the best at capturing carbon that humans and other organisms produce and fight the consequences of a changing climate. Up to 15 billion trees are cut down globally each year. This is not sustainable for wildlife, people or for the climate.

As part of our ongoing partnership with Raleigh International and to help raise funds for their tireless efforts alongside Action Not Excuses, we decided to bring the fight closer to home by planting a target of 100 trees in Cheshire.

On Saturday 27th of November 2021. The Chadwick team set out in force and planted 160 saplings of various species including Hazel, Willow, Oak, Crab Apple, Holly and Scots Pine. Whilst they won’t show much sign of life until Spring 2022 they will capture up to 2 metric tons of carbon and help to combat the ever rising threat of global warming.

Tanzania is one of the world’s poorest countries. Approximately 75% of Tanzanians live without adequate access to safe water and sanitation. With a growing population of young people there is also considerable need for employment opportunities so they can learn how to develop sustainable growth and improvement for their families and communities.

With our help Raleigh International are empowering youths to learn about Natural Resource Management. The project engages approximately 900 community members across 2 village areas. Our support ensures international volunteers can continue to train and educate the youth workers from these communities about sustainable forest management and raise awareness of the significant positive changes that can be made. Central to the project is the planting of approx 300,000 fast growing pine tree seedlings each year. The 1st project commenced in the Autumn of 2018 with Chadwick currently committing funds until the Summer of 2021.

Joel Chadwick – Managing Director of Chadwick Teamwear commented:
“ I was proud to visit the projects myself for the first time in October. It was both humbling and fascinating and has only made me more determined that we need to take the lead both as a business and as individuals in playing our part to improve the way we operate environmentally.
It’s a huge challenge, but one we must all start to take more responsibility for each day”.

Now in its second year, the three-year partnership focuses on supporting Raleigh’s Natural Resource Management (NRM) program where deforestation and desertification is a considerable issue. The project supported is called Youth for Community Conservation (Y4CC).

Through the partnership, Chadwick Teamwear and Raleigh International are working to empower Tanzanian youth to mobilise 900 rural community members to live in sustainable harmony with their natural environment. To support this aim, the Y4CC project includes the planting of 300,000 tree seedlings and the establishment of three community-based natural resource management committees.

By planting pine seedlings and constructing a village-owned tree nursery in each community, Y4CC will provide three rural communities in the Mkingu Forest Nature Reserve with a sustainable alternative to deforestation. Pine is a fast-growing species of tree which, when mature, will provide an alternative source of sustainable timber for community members to harvest for charcoal, firewood and lumber, thus reducing the pressure on local, natural forests.

Six Tanzanian youth will be supported by international volunteers to train and raise awareness in sustainable forest management, Three newly formed committees will help ensure the project’s long-term sustainability.

The project has already made considerable impact in its first year. It has reached over 800 people and trained local people in rural communities on practices around natural resource management through awareness-raising events. Volunteers funded by the project have also constructed tree nurseries in two communities and have exceeded targets by planting approximately 240,000 seedlings, helping to conserve the natural environment in rural Tanzania.

James Sutton, Head of Corporate Partnerships at Raleigh International, said: “Planting trees is of course a positive thing, but to really ensure that there is an understanding as to why the forest reserve should be protected, it’s so important to have youth leaders driving awareness about sustainable forest management within communities. Without the very generous financial support of Chadwick Textiles we really wouldn’t be able to achieve this”.
