Celebrating

We improve lives by planting and caring for trees in cities
Trees for Cities is the only national UK charity dedicated to urban trees. We get stuck in with local communities to cultivate lasting change in their neighbourhoods – whether it’s revitalising forgotten spaces, creating healthier environments or getting people excited about growing, foraging, and eating healthy food.
