South Yorkshire Woodland Partnership is a part of the SYMCA ‘Million Trees’ project If your business or community is looking for FREE TREES please visit www.southyorkshire-ca.gov.uk/million-trees

Do you want to involve your business with helping your local environment? We can help engage with local woodland creation projects, link with the community and take part. You can do this by making a donation or giving in kind support such as staff time. We’d make sure to shout about your kind gesture on our news page and in upcoming press releases.

Do you want to get involved hands on and volunteer? We can put you in touch with our partners or link you up to projects in your local area so you can help out where you can.
