Who wouldn't want to live on a tree-lined street? 🌲🌳 Not only do they look inviting, but they also offer a wealth of benefits, from boosting mental wellbeing to calming local traffic!

The Trees for Streets calendar is split into two: ❄️ In colder months, we plant in the locations selected by our sponsors, ensuring they have the best chance at thriving ☀️ In warmer months, we support our Watering Champions, who work hard to ensure their local young trees get all the water they need

According to Earthwatch Europe, around 1 in 3 people in the UK don't have access to nature-rich spaces near their homes. Some of the most deprived areas have no green space. We find it heartbreaking. A third of the country is missing out on cleaner air, peacefulness and better mental health.

What if we told you that your street could look like this by this time next year? Sponsor a tree outside your home to start the regreening revolution on your road 🌲🌳 Or why not get your neighbours together to raise money for several trees that everyone can benefit from?

Autumn brings out some incredible British wildlife, many of whom will be using your trees as habitats! Have you taken any pictures of autumnal wildlife this year? We'd love to see them 🦔🐭🦇🕸️

We're partnered with some great councils all over the UK, but we'd love to work with even more! Tell us where you want us to be planting this time next year in the comments, and we'll do our best to be there 👇

If you were to ask us what scares us the most, we'd have to say streets with no trees 😱 Not only do they look grey, but residents living on streets with no trees face noisier and more polluted surroundings, as well as hotter summers and the potential of flooding!

Rain on concrete has nowhere to go, causing flooding, but there is something you can do. Tree pits ensure that rainwater has a place to go, reducing the amount of runoff that sits on concrete. Live in a flood-prone area? Sponsor a tree outside your home: sponsor.treesforstreets.org/start
