Trees improve the city’s climate – they produce oxygen, bind dust particles, and provide shade. This makes a vital contribution to the wellbeing of everybody who lives and works here. Our Tree Strategy sets out how we manage trees to maximise their benefits. The links below will take you to more information about the city's trees and how you can get involved.
