a charity promoting urban tree research and education
The trustees are pleased to announce the publication of our first comprehensive research strategy. The strategy arose from a participatory ‘café-style’ workshop held at the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew in July 2018. The meeting was attended by trustees and members of the Research Advisory Committee, to review progress and future opportunities for Fund4Trees’ research activities promoting sustainable treescapes.
We hope you enjoy a short film of our ride to London on 26th September, celebrating the work of famous 17th century author John Evelyn, and involving an inner city community in celebrating the importance of trees.
The Charter for Trees, Woods and People will be launched on 6th November, and Fund4Trees is undertaking a special cycling Charter Ride to help celebrate this significant moment.

Our Tree Charter Ride from London to Lincoln has come to an end. 180 miles with tree friends to celebrate the launch of the Tree Charter. Watch our short film of the highlights.
After a wet start eventually the sun came out. We reached Somerby, and the local community Charter Branch, before sun-down to plant another tree. We’ve now reached a total of 130 miles. Just 50 miles to go to reach Lincoln.
