Thank you to the Woodland Trust and Marks & Spencer for the donation of 105 hedging trees.  Ridgeline volunteers have used them to plant new hedgerows to screen a composting area, provide a safety barrier around the greenhouse and complete the garden’s perimeter hedging. Marks & Spencer’s Christmas Card Recycling Scheme helps fund woodland creation projects nationwide, inconjunction with the Woodland Trust.

Gill Grainger, Client and School Liaison Officer at the Ridgeline Trust, said: “We’ve had a tree donation from the Woodland Trust in the past and applied again this year to further improve the garden. We are all very excited as the trees are going to provide  lovely new hedges for us and for the people who use the garden – and more homes for wildlife too.
