The Tree of Life
A symbol of life, diversity, hope, and love. The Tree of Life is found throughout history, across cultures and transcending religion. In science the Tree of Life represents the connection between all living things, and the origins from a single common ancestor that lived 3.5 billion years ago. To us, the Tree of Life is a symbol of our connection to the natural world, our role as stewards of these precious landscapes and of our community, bound together through our love for nature.
Typically planted in the centre of a sacred garden or forest, there could be no better place than the Sevenoaks Wildlife Reserve for our first Tree of Life. As we breathe new life into the Reserve and The Jeffery Harrison Visitor Centre, we are inviting you to join us and take your place on the Tree of Life.
Take your place on the Tree of Life
Placed at the heart of the Jeffery Harrison Visitor Centre, the Tree of Life has been carefully crafted from pure recyclable copper. With space for 500 plaques made from pure uncoated metals, making each one durable and infinitely recyclable.
Choose from the elusive golden bird or a range of stunning oak leaves brought to life in gold, silver and bronze. Your plaque will be engraved with your personal message whether dedicated to a loved one, celebrating life or showing your commitment to the community. Choose to place your plaque on our beautiful Tree of Life or opt to keep your plaque close to home and we’ll post it directly to you.
Take your place on the Tree of Life today and know that your love for nature will be transformed into real life impact as you fund vital works to create and sustain an abundant and biodiverse world.
What your support means
- A gold bird could help fund the purchase and maintenance of conservation grazing animals to help manage landscapes, promote biodiversity and create species rich habitats.
- A gold oak leaf could support the building of rafts and islands, promoting the continued return and breeding of at-risk birds.
- A silver oak leaf could support the Kent Wildlife Trust Wardens and Apprentices to rewet habitats, creating climate resilience and promoting the return of wetland species.
- A bronze oak leaf could fund coastal clean-up, ensuring marine species, coastal birds and at-risk habitats are protected from the negative impact of human actions.
