The Mayor of London has launched a massive £3.1m tree planting package to protect and future-proof London. Find out how to get involved in the programme and read updates on progress.
Make our city greener, healthier and wilder
Plant a tree
London’s trees provide at least £133m of benefits every year in terms of air pollution removal, carbon sequestion and reducing the amount of water going into drains.
Since 2016 the Mayor has supported the planting of over 430,000 new trees across London but many more are needed to help combat climate change, provide healthy green space for Londoners and a home for wildlife.
