Planting trees for sustainable cities

Rising temperatures, extreme weather and air pollution are putting increasing pressure on urban spaces and our health. 

Trees are a natural solution to these threats. They absorb carbon, purify the air, cool our streets, reduce flood risk and much more. 

Yet, shockingly, three in four urban wards in the UK fall short of the recommended tree cover [Forest Research 2023]. 

Our Green Match Fund campaign will raise funds to plant urban trees where they're needed most, with every tree bringing us closer to a greener more sustainable future. 

Join us from 22-29 April to help grow greener, cleaner towns and cities. 

And here's the exciting part - for one week only your donation will be doubled at no extra cost to you. That's double the trees!

Sign up now to be the first to know when our campaign goes live. Let's grow lasting change one tree at a time.

Double your impact

From Tuesday 22-29 April, every donation to our Green Match Fund campaign will be doubled thanks to our partners the Big Give. That means for every £1 you donate, Trees for Cities receives £2. 

That's right - your support will go twice as far in tackling climate change, growing resilient cities, and making a lasting impact on people and the planet.

campaign target

The funds raised in this campaign will help to plant and protect urban trees. Together we can grow greener, healthier cities for today and futuer generations. 

A natural solution

Our cities are on the front lines of climate change—facing rising temperatures, worsening air pollution, and increased flood risk. But it's not too late to tackle this and there’s a simple, powerful solution: trees. 

Urban trees cool our streets, capture carbon, improve air quality, and create vital habitats for wildlife. They make our cities healthier, greener, and more resilient. Yet too many urban areas lack the tree cover needed to combat these growing challenges. 

By planting and protecting trees, we can transform our towns and cities into thriving, sustainable places for today and future generations.

You can make a difference by supporting our Green Match Fund campaign from Tuesday 22-29 April.
