We are proud to be a Tree Charter Branch…
On 6 November 2017, on the 800th anniversary of the 1217 Charter of the Forest, the new Charter for Trees, Woods and People was launched by the Woodland Trust.
The Charter for Trees, Woods and People sets out the principles for a society in which people and trees can stand stronger together.
In September 2019, we became a Tree Charter Branch. Charter Branches are integral to embedding the Tree Charter’s ten principles and ensuring that the relationship between people and trees is recognised in decision making across homes, neighbourhoods, communities and government.
The 10 Tree Charter Principles…
Sustain landscapes rich in wildlife
Recover health, hope and wellbeing with the help of trees
Celebrate the power of trees to inspire
Grow forests of opportunity and innovation
Protect irreplaceable trees and woodland
Combat the threats to our habitats
Strengthen our landscapes with trees
