DARTMOOR Preservation Association (DPA) has joined a global network of organisations working together to support the planet and will receive more funding in the process.

The DPA is now listed as an official environmental partner with ‘1% For the Planet’, a scheme that matches charities with businesses that have committed to donate one percent of their revenue.

The association was recommended as a partner by Dewerstone clothing in Princetown and joins more than 4000 other partners.

Tom Usher, CEO of Dartmoor Preservation Association, said: ‘We are delighted to be a 1% For the Planet Environmental partner.

‘Our work and projects have an urgent relevance in the face of climate change and global upheaval and we are excited to work with forward-thinking businesses that love Dartmoor as much as we do.’
