Our involvement with Trees for Life and the Hedgerow Campaign began as an initiative to restore hedgerows damaged by Storm Ciaran, funded by donations from the sale of road and home fuel.
Last week, we received the final update and statistics, and we realised this project had become so much more. We have made a meaningful impact across the island, and the level of community involvement has been truly inspiring.
Jon Best, Director at ATF, said:
“Planting these trees as part of this community project has been a powerful way to bring people together while benefiting the environment. It has enhanced green spaces, improved air quality, and created vital habitats for wildlife. Multiple organisations have come together to plant trees, contributing not only to environmental sustainability but also fostering a sense of shared responsibility and pride.”
