275,000 trees planted in the last three years thanks to project
Over 275,000 trees have been planted in the West Midlands as part of an ambitious three-year project to deliver tree planting across our local landscape and community spaces.Â
In partnership with Stratford-on-Avon District Council, Warwick District Council and Wychavon District Council, we launched the Trees Call to Action Project (TCAP) in 2022 thanks to a grant of £499,446 from the Trees Call to Action Fund.
The project was set up to provide vital advice and support for all aspects of tree planting and maintenance, while raising awareness of the benefit of trees in communities throughout the region.
275,182 trees have been planted over the last three years across Stratford-on-Avon, Warwick, and Wychavon Districts throughout the initiative.
The Heart of England ºÚÁÏ´«ËÍÃÅ held an event at Gorcott Hill, near Redditch on the 7th February to celebrate this fantastic achievement with over 30 partners, members of local communities, and landowners.
At the celebration event, a small, new woodland was planted before visitors shared their reflections on the achievements and successes of the project. This was followed by a performance from theatre company ‘Half a String’, who helped everyone find the epic in the tiny, from the perspective of an acorn.
