The Forest
At Bancroft Education, we want the company we build to have a positive impact beyond the educational resources we create, and as a publisher of printed educational resources, we recognise that our work has an environmental impact. We want responsible publishing and environmental awareness to be an integral part of Bancroft Education from the very beginning.
Therefore, alongside the launch of Bancroft Education, we are also beginning something that we hope will grow with us over the years: the Bancroft Education Forest. Thanks to our forest, we will support the planting of trees through Treedom, contributing to environmental projects while creating a visible record of our sustainability journey.
Additionally, we wanted to connect the forest with the stories we create. Therefore, many of our trees will be named after characters from our books, so that, as our collection of stories grows, our forest can grow alongside it.
We also want the forest to be something our community can be part of, so we will be sharing the Bancroft Education Forest and giving others the opportunity to contribute if they would like to help it grow.
Impact
The trees we plant have big ambitions: to bring benefits not only to the environment, but also to the people who live in it. That's why we work with NGOs and local communities to select the right tree for the right place and the right purpose. That’s why we think about the medium and long term, because we’re not content with simply planting trees: we want to see them grow.
The trees in the forest will absorb:
