“ Trees are a vital part of urban infrastructure and offer a variety of benefits – shade in summer, shelter from rain and wind; they help to keep the air clean and breathable, support wildlife and add value to the culture and economy of our towns and cities. Now is the time to work together to protect the urban trees we have and plant more so they survive and deliver these and many more benefits into the future.” Sue Holden, Chief Executive, Woodland Trust
