Give it some welly - turn up and dig in!
Coed Cadw (the Woodland Trust), the UK's leading woodland conservation charity, is launching the country’s biggest ever children’s tree planting campaign today. The campaign, Tree For All, will inspire a new generation of environmental warriors by encouraging youngsters to reconnect with the natural world. Tree For All is giving at least one million children the chance to get to grips with nature and have fun planting trees.
