As a company, we are on a continual journey of sustainability. We are always focusing on new ways to show our commitment to the environment, so on Saturday the 25th of February we partnered with Clyde Climate Forest to help plant 500 trees in Dunterlie Park, Barrhead. We were represented by Marie, Nicole, Brian and Scott who joined local school children and volunteers to plant a mix of tree species including Downy Birch, Rowan, Alder, Oak, Hazel and Scots Pine. The hope is once grown, these trees will have a positive impact on the urban environment by providing a cooling effect in heatwaves, surface water management, while providing carbon storage and wildlife habitats. Clyde Climate Forest’s ambition is to increase trees across Glasgow by 20%, The project was developed with East Renfrewshire Council, Trees for Cities, TCV, and Green Action Trust and supported by the Woodland Trust’s Emergency Tree Fund and Scottish Forestry.
Our aim is to plant again towards the end of the year in our efforts to give something back!
