About The Living Rainforest

The Trust for Sustainable Living (TSL) is a global educational charity, with the aim of helping the next generation to achieve a sustainable future. We have an education centre called The Living Rainforest which welcomes around 100,000 visitors each year, including 25,000 children on school trips.

Visitors can experience the sights, sounds and smells of a lush tropical rainforest environment – and explore how plants, animals, human needs, economies and cultures are all linked.
