Funding opportunity: Government fund supports planting of trees outside woodlands

Would you like to plant trees on on near your healthcare site to support health, wellbeing and biodiversity? You may be eligible to apply for the Government's Urban Tree Challenge Fund (UTCF), which provides funding to plant trees outside of woodlands.

The UTCF supports planting of large ‘standard’ trees in urban areas – that make an immediate impact to communities. It is available to anyone who has management control of the land, including local authorities and private landowners, to level up access to nature across the country. Tree planting can take place in urban areas, with higher scores awarded for planting in socially deprived areas with low canopy cover, in proximity to healthcare or educational facilities.
