Summary We open in the morning. Low, romantic dawn light. A couple in their
50s and their dog climb up a beautiful Easthead dune. Imagine two active
walkers, a couple who enjoy a challenging walk as well as a beautiful view.
At the top they turn around to admire the view. With their backs turned,
only we can see the team of NT volunteers stand up within the dunes. A
surprising and beautiful sight, they gently get to work, cleaning the beach,
picking up litter. Completely unseen by the couple. The dog barks in
anticipation of a frisbie, as the woman goes to throw it, the man and dog
run for it in competition, volunteers unroll a wooden slatted path, piecing
and slotting together a new route for them through the dunes. We cut to
Chartwell House. We chase close up details of volunteers working with the
earth, planting a baby tree into soil. A hand wiping mud on work clothes.
Cutting wider, we glide behind a young boy as he runs towards the working
volunteers. As his body moves across the frame, the baby tree in the
background has become a full, fruit bearing tree. Now with fruit from the
tree in his hands, the boy democratically hands one each out to his family.
As sun begins to set, we move into the woodland of Toyshill. The family –
young adventurers in raincoats and outdoor wear – venture forth, the two
kids racing through. Volunteers clear away some bushes and fallen branches
to reveal a route through into the idyllic woodland, before disappearing
behind the shrubbery. A boy puts his ear to an ancient tree. At the
opposite side of the tree ( the tree is centre frame) and hidden from him,
volunteers are pruning, taking care of the tree. The boy and volunteers,
completely unaware of each other. As the family walk through the woodland,
around them, volunteers are busy at work. Installing way finders,
performing tree surgery and whacking away dead foliage. As the camera
glides through the trees the volunteers disappear completely, leaving just
one ranger. The last ranger, inspecting insects, carefully hands the girl a
stag beetle. We cut to a wide. The final ranger disappears between the cut.
We are just left with the family alone, exploring a grand and beautiful
forest. VO: With the support of our members, donors, visitors and
