A conservation charity is making a final appeal for donations to fund its plan to plant a new forest.

Avon Needs Trees bought the 420-acre Wick Farm between Bristol and Bath in May and is preparing to plant 100,000 trees to transform it into Lower Chew Forest.

A crowdfunding campaign to pay for saplings and equipment broke its initial goal of £50,000, prompting the charity to raise it to £80,000.

It now has just over 24 hours to raise the final £12,000 needed to meet its new target.
