Last night, GoodGym volunteers took to the streets of Croydon to tell people about the local Trees for Streets scheme. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Croydon Council was one of the first UK councils to join the Trees for Streets project, and since the launch of its scheme this summer, requests have been rolling in from local residents for new trees to be planted in streets and parks across the borough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This event saw members of the Croydon GoodGym group brave the wet Autumn weather to share information about tree sponsorship with local people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GoodGym has previously run similar events to help promote Trees for Streets in Tower Hamlets, and there’s more to come over the next few months. Long term the two charities plan to collaborate both on getting new trees planted and encouraging tree watering in other GoodGym areas across London and nationwide, contributing not only to our environment but also to the individual health and fitness of its members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
