A Green Revolution: Your Invitation to a Unique Conservation Experience
We are delighted to invite you to a one-of-a-kind green initiative, in the build-up to November's much-anticipated Tree Week.
On Friday, 20th October, 9Trees CIC will be hosting a 'Team Green Away Day' at one of 9trees.org largest sites on the border of England and Wales.
Monday 16h October 2023
Attending the 'Team Green Away Day' offers an immersive experience where you can gain first-hand knowledge and understanding of the current efforts in woodland management and tree conservation.
You will have the chance to interact with the community volunteers, our partners and dedicated team members of 9Trees CIC, giving you unique insights into their passion and commitment.
This day also provides a rich source of inspiring stories and photo opportunities that can be shared with your audience, thereby raising awareness of environmental conservation efforts. The event could also serve as a springboard for features leading up to Tree Week in November.
Join us for a volunteer-led day of tree maintenance near the enchanting village of Glascwm. Together, we will breathe new life into our environment as we remove tree guards and expertly manage grasses that could hinder new growth of our trees. Throughout the day, we will sculpt our green spaces into thriving habitats, embarking on an ongoing and dynamic journey.
We believe this event presents a terrific opportunity for your readers to learn about the practical aspects of woodland management, while also appreciating the essential role trees play in our ecosystem.

About 9Trees
https://www.9trees.org/
9Trees are a not-for-profit organisation. Income is reinvested into training, education and management of the woodlands created through subscriptions.
Rather than selling carbon credits, 9Trees are creating carbon sinks in the form of professionally managed broadleaf woodlands for wildlife and people. Their philosophy is simple; Plant 9 trees per person, per year, to help balance one individual’s personal carbon footprint.
By planting the right trees in the right place, 9Trees also promote biodiversity and enhance habitat corridors. Each tree is geolocated, keeping subscribers up to date with their progress until maturity.
9Trees contines to create amazing shelterbelts, habitat corridors as well as nature reserves, this is all possible by forging relationships with landowners all over the UK, offering them a free service that will see the UK once more rich in biodiversity.
9Trees also promotes jobs and skills within the local countryside and woodland sector by bringing communities together to create woodlands that benefit people and wildlife. 9Trees are for nature, wellbeing, rural Jobs and working to balance the UK’s carbon footprint.
9Trees is supported by experts working all over the UK in various capacities, a real team effort. This Pro-bono support is greatly appreciated by Ash and Mike, helping us plant 100,000 trees in the coming years.
