Want to help the environment, get active outdoors and meet others in the community while you do?
Be a volunteer for the day – help plant trees along the Ffordd Llanerch footpath!
Background
Fully funded – this event is supported by the Woodland Trust’s Emergency Tree Fund.
It will help towards our goals as part of Wrexham Woodland Pledge (which outlines our commitment to increasing tree canopy cover, and protecting existing woodland across the county borough).
On the day
The event is taking place on Saturday, January 18, 2025 from 10am – 2pm.
If you are staying over lunchtime please bring your own packed lunch and drinks. Hot drinks and biscuits are provided. There are also no toilets on site so please plan ahead.
Children must be accompanied by an adult, tree planting is suitable for all the family but young children will require adult support when digging holes.
All equipment is provided and gloves are available to use, please wear warm weather-appropriate clothes and wellies or sturdy boots!
We will be on site between 10am – 2pm but feel free to stay as long as you like.
Meeting point
Meet at the entrance to footpath behind Ffordd Llanerch off Afoneitha Road.
