WWF x Goodgym Woking: Tree Planting Project & Bamboo Removal Creating Dead Hedges/Wildlife Piles 🌍

Workout for Nature with WWF

Welcome to WWF x GoodGym’s Workout for Nature. From 7th April WWF and GoodGym are collaborating on hundreds of sessions to celebrate Earth Day. Each session will involve a Workout for Nature - a physical volunteering activity which will benefit local green spaces, and give your own wellbeing a boost. Simply sign up below and come along. No experience required!

WE ACT (Woking Environment Action) are organising a Tree Planting Project. It will make Woking a healthier, greener place for us all:

🌳 Boosting nature and supporting local wildlife by providing new habitats and food sources 💨 Improving air quality by absorbing pollutants and releasing oxygen. 😌 Green spaces with trees reduce stress and keep us feeling happy and healthy 🌍 Trees provide shade, reduce urban heat, and help manage stormwater, which will make Woking more resilient to extreme weather events like flooding. 🤝 Bringing our local community together and get to know each other better.

We will be removing small remaining patches of bamboo, laurel rhododendron and creating dead hedges/wildlife piles with the brash If the Himalayan balsam season has started we might start our efforts to remove that also.

Thanks to WEAct’s partnership with Woking Borough Council and a generous donation of 420 trees from the Woodland Trust, WE ACT is bringing more nature to the community. Come help them get these trees in the ground!
