Why Trees for Cities?
Do you want to make a tangible difference to our natural world and people’s lives? Make it count with a dedicated, welcoming team passionate about tackling the environmental and social crises, through planting, protecting and promoting trees in urban places.
Trees for Cities is a mission-driven organisation. Our people are incredibly motivated to create real change, transform local environments, and engage urban communities to act for people and the planet. Joining us means working for a 30-year-strong charity, highly regarded as a trusted urban tree-planting partner with a wide impact and a national stakeholder network.
Today, over 80% of us in the UK live in a town or city, and urban areas will be hit the hardest by the impact of the environmental crisis. So, with much to be done, it’s an exciting time to work with us as we double down on our efforts.
