Reopening of two tree-planting funds for local authorities and community groups

Over £14 million will be available which allow both local authorities and community groups to access funds for new tree-planting projects

Hundreds of thousands of trees will be planted in communities across England after two major funding schemes reopened for applications today.

Over £14m will be allocated to successful applicants across both funds, which will support tree planting efforts and contribute to Government commitments to treble tree-planting rates across England by the end of this Parliament, planting 30,000 hectares of trees across the UK per year to meet net zero ambitions.
