We’re hoping to plant 100 trees in the moorlands around Sheffield as part of our Centenary Tree Planting programme. That’s one tree for every year we’ve worked to preserve and enhance the countryside. But we need your help to bring this project to life. cprepdsy.org.uk/news/restoring…

This evening, my youngest daughter and I walked a mini pilgrimage from the place where Ethel Haythornthwaite was born to the place where she is buried. It is not far, but it felt like a special journey. CPRE Peak District and South Yorkshire

This month, you might spot metal tree guards popping up on the moors. As part of our centenary tree planting, we're replacing iconic moorland trees and creating wildlife corridors to support bird species like the Willow Tit and Ring Ouzel. cprepdsy.org.uk/centenary-tree…

We've been chatting to Paulette Edwards on BBC Sheffield about our Centenary Tree Planting. To find out more about our work to restore iconic moorland trees visit cprepdsy.org.uk/news/restoring…🌳

Thanks for the lovely chat and good tunes today! Here's a snapshot of our 'office' for the day. We've had our cuppa and are ready to get back to planting more trees. BBC Sheffield Paulette Edwards cprepdsy.org.uk/news/restoring…

📢 71% of the public support stronger protections for nature, so why is the government weakening them? Blaming the environment for our broken economy is wrong. Sustainable growth requires a sustainable environment.

🚨Our National Parks face historic funding cuts, threatening nature & communities. They were built on visionary action & they need the same today. With the right funding & protections from the government, they can become stronger for future generations. thetimes.com/uk/environment…

Trees have been planted for a number of reasons: replacing iconic veteran trees to ensure we have Hawthorns and Rowans for the next generation of people and wildlife to enjoy…

And to establish links between existing woodland and tree cover through providing “stepping stones” to allow species such as Willow Tit to increase their range, and to provide extra cover and food for a range of species, such as Redwing, Fieldfare and Ring Ouzel. (3/3)

Drought action waits for taps to run low instead of keeping rivers alive🚿 We need a more proactive approach to keep chalk streams flowing, protect farms & shield species🌊 This must include industry fixing leaks, & campaigns to boost water efficiency🚰 theguardian.com/environment/20…
