Trees for Cities is an independent national charity that engages local people and volunteers to plant, protect and promote trees in towns and cities worldwide. We cultivate lasting change in urban neighbourhoods by revitalising forgotten spaces, creating healthier places and getting people involved in their local environments. In a world facing unprecedented threats from climate change, loss of biodiversity, and disconnection from nature, our work has never been more urgent or important.
We have been in existence for nearly 30 years, engaging communities to plant, protect and promote urban trees in parks, streets, schools and housing estates across the UK and around the world. Through our work, we deliver local impact on a national and global scale, strengthening urban communities through volunteering opportunities and helping to enable and inspire a new generation to plant and protect urban trees.
