Tree-Athlon London 2006 · 23 September 2006 ·

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

                       TREES  FOR  CITIES

In addition to my other activities, I am a Tree Warden for both Kensington & Chelsea and Wandsworth, and have contributed locally to the Environment Strategies of both boroughs and also at a European Union strategic level.

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page forTrees for Cities which is a charity that needs increased exposure as well as funding. 

Please feel free to donate online now as, unfortunately,  you've now missed your chances this year to become Tree-athletes.

Still, there is always next year and there are many trees waiting to be planted ...
