About my charity : Trees for Cities Trees for Cities
Trees for Cities is an independent charity working to improve the environment in urban areas by involving local people in community tree planting, training and landscaping projects. We manage projects across London, in Brighton, Bristol, Leeds, Manchester, the Midlands and Reading as well as internationally in Addis Ababa, Nairobi and Ica, Peru. All our community greening projects are supported by extensive community consultation and involvement programmes that incorporate local residents, schools and community groups. As well as educating local people about our projects, in London we also run a series of horticulture, arboriculture and woodland management courses specialising in developing and up-skilling the long-term unemployed.

Hello

We're running to raise money for trees!

Trees for Cities is a registered charity and holding a 5k run in London, Leeds and Manchester on 5th October. You can find out more stuff about them in the panel on the left.

If you can sponsor us a fiver (that's £2.50 per knee) for 10k (okay it's only 5k for each of us) then that would be fantastic and Andrew would be really chuffed. Thank you so much.

Andrew's Knees

(PS: if you're coming to cheer us on we're both running in Manchester and expect to cross to cross the line together.)

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Trees for Cities gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
