Tree planting at Harris Academy

We will be planting 100 trees around Harris Academy, replacing those previously removed as per the Tree Strategy. The project, starting the week of 14 October 2024, will include a mix of species like apple and cherry trees to boost biodiversity and habitat space.

We’ll also be planting 200 meters of hedging to enhance the local environment and support wildlife. The work is expected to be completed by the end of October.
