Funds for hedgerow planting in 2024/2025

Could you be a Hedgerow Hero?

Do you have links to a community group interested in planting a hedgerow?

Or do you just know of a site near you that would benefit a hedgerow?  Let us know and we will reach out to local groups to see if they can help.

Either way, we’d love to hear from you and will respond within a couple of weeks!

Urban hedgerows are a highly space efficient way of boosting carbon capture.  They also provide rich habitats for a range of wildlife. They help improve air quality, screen homes and play areas from busy roads, and can hide ugly fences and make our green spaces more beautiful.

We’d love to hear from you about opportunities for planting hedgerows of any length, but have some preference for funding the creation of longer hedgerows. Proposed hedgerows either in green belt areas or in low-income areas with little greenery will also be given preference.

Please send your hedgerow planting ideas to hedgerows@cprelondon.org.uk. Do it NOW to boost the chances getting your idea turned into reality by the end of March 2024!

Even if you don’t think the hedgerow could go in before the end of March 2024 – please let us know of potential sites as we are also now building a list of potential sites for the Nov 2024 to March 2025 planting season.
