Welcome to Michelle for her first GoodGym task (and as it's a small world, Michelle already knew Yvonne from her running group!)

We joined Rachel, the Portsmouth City Council coordinator for responses to climate change and Public Health; Terry from the Havant Tree Wardens; about a dozen PCC Green & Clean operatives; and a handful of other volunteers.... between us we planted approx 150 tree whips in green spaces around Crookhorn.

We learned the planting techniques and the reasons trees are going to be vital for global health as the planet gets warmer.

(And we got some fresh air and exercise too!)
