Trees aren't just for birthdays

Becky Paffard is raising money for Trees for Cities
Celebrating the birthday of Becky Paffard

on 9 February 2010

Donations cannot currently be made to this page
We plant urban trees in parks, streets, schools and housing estates across the UK, as well as internationally, revitalising these areas and improving the lives of the people who live in them. We strengthen communities through volunteering opportunities and inspire children to grow and eat good food.

Story

Hopefully everyone who came to the party last night enjoyed themselves! I loved seeing everybody and it meant so much to me that you were there!

I've made a pretty drastic change to the target, but I was just so encouraged by what people said that I think its possible to go further! Really plant some trees! We raised a very impressive £122 at the party-so keep up the good work everyone!

Love you all!!!!

 

The tree planting plan is going ahead in a field in Wetherby (North Leeds) in the week commencing 15th March and what we need now is trees! Along with Leeds City Council and Trees for Cities, we'll be planting a mix of oak, birch, hazel and field mapel, all nice and native!

It costs approximately £2 to buy, plant and protect a tree! Which isn't much considering how important trees are! What I am asking you to do is donate the equivalent of how many trees you want to be planted.


I've set a target for 500 trees but hopefully we'll go above and beyond this and make a real contribution to mitigating our impacts on the climate.
