Local people who care about, maintain and plant trees in their borough.We help grow the treescape. Please follow our page to be kept in the loop.

The Tree Wardens Scheme was created in the 1980's by the Tree Council to allow local people to get together and help the treescape grow. We like trees and everything about them, especially those here in London. The Tree Warden scheme was created by the Tree Council, who provide free training from time to time. Tree Warden groups are autonomous - formed usually by local residents and free of any control from anyone but themselves. Tree Wardens spend between 5 minutes and lots of hours per year caring for and learning about existing, mainly street trees and sometimes planting new ones. Many people have trees near them and want to make sure they are not under threat and are well looked after but cannot do it themselves. That's where we step in - we're unpaid volunteers who work with the Council's Tree Officer to support the growth of these vital green assets.

England’s ancient oak trees dying in extreme hot and dry weather 19/08/2026

England’s ancient oak trees dying in extreme hot and dry weather Woodland Trust says trees struggling in drought stress, with older ‘survivors’ disproportionately affected

We won!
A High Court judge has quashed the planning permission Enfield Council granted to Spurs to concrete Whitewebbs Park.
The judge found that Enfield planning department mislead it's own planning committee by hiding comments from it's own Ecology Officer and failing to disclose crucial documents. The judge ruled that Enfield also prejudiced the public's right to challenge the planning application by the withholding of the crucial ecological evidence preventing a proper discussion at the planning committee meeting in Feb 2025.
It's been a long fight but we have seen off Daniel Levy, seen off the then Labour administration in Enfield and now we have sent Spurs packing.
If Spurs really support women's football then they can lift their s*x ban on the 17 world class training pitches they already have in Enfield.
Meanwhile Enfield council's planning department needs a total shake up to prevent this kind of shocking, costly shambles ever happening again.
Huge thanks to @pilc_campaigns and our barristers for their superb legal work and to the 1000 people who donated small sums to fund this case.
