1,370 Trees for Maghull & Lydiate and More to Come!!

The Friends of Maghull & District (FOMD) have planted 16,000 trees since 2021 in parks, schools, roads and are now delighted to have secured 1,370 woodland and hedge trees for St Gregory’s Primary School.

The successful tree application builds on similar recent tree planting at St George’s and Hudson Primary Schools. The trees be delivered at staggered intervals between January and March 2025 from The Conservation Volunteers (TCV) and the Woodland Trust, supported by our brilliant long-term partners Mersey Forest. The planting will create a wildlife friendly, pollution reducing 150m hawthorn hedge (950 trees) and woodland (420 trees) comprising of Common Oak, Green Beach, Birch, Alder, Hornbeam, Rowan, Field Maple, Hazel. It will importantly provide a great eco-educational opportunity for all the children and community volunteers, whilst providing a wonderful environmental legacy for future generations.

Please Register ASAP to Help.

FOMD is only a small group, and our success has been achieved by bringing the community together. Consequently, we need everyone to register their interest for a massive tree planting program later in the year by sending your contact details to admin@fomd.co.uk so we can get in touch with drop in planting dates between December and March. Please help our community to continue making a difference to our environment and do our bit for climate change.

Huge thanks,

FOMD

Together Making Maghull a better place to live.
