Planting Hedgerows with Kids Plant Trees

09/03/2024

Hello everyone!

We are delighted to be able to tell you that another £1000 has been donated recently to Kids Plant Trees.

In 2020 a group of Sheffield mums set out to do something practical with their families to help tackle climate change and biodiversity crises by helping nature on their doorstep. They partner with Sheffield City Council's community forestry team to deliver family-friendly tree planting events. More recently they have started working with property and land developers to help create better green spaces with and for the children living in their developments. So far they have planted over 7500 trees, improved 6 public spaces and helped 9 schools improve their outdoor spaces. You can go to https://www.kidsplanttrees.org/ to find out more about what they do.

Pictured here are pupils from Reignhead Primary School celebrating at the end of their hedgerow planting session at Linley Bank Meadows in partnership with Sheffield City Council.

Your donation will be a great help with the projects they are planning at High Hazels Park in Darnall and also in various schools.

Thank you again for your continued generosity. Your support means so much to us and to those we are able to help. We've got more donations lined up so we'll keep you posted...

Hope you all have a lovely weekend,

Dan & The Sheffield 1000 Team
