Can you chip in to help fund the UK's first Temperate Rainforest Research Station?

This is a pioneering project by Cornish farmer Merlin Hanbury-Tenison's Thousand Year Trust (for which I'm an unpaid trustee).

Millions of non-native pheasants, bred in appalling conditions, are dumped into the countryside just to be shot. This isn’t conservation; it’s carnage. The shooting industry must be held accountable!
