Tree Planting

As part of the University’s Sustainability and Carbon Neutral Strategy, we are continuing to work in partnership with White Rose Forest and Kirklees Council to plant a tree for every new student that enrols at the University.

Now is the time of year when trees enter their dormant cycle and are alive but not actively growing, which means it’s a perfect time to plant them. As the tree planting season begins again, we are excited to be running new sessions over new sites!            

The sites (around Kirklees) will be reforested over half day sessions, running on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons (12.20pm-4.00pm) during November, December, January and February. All transport, equipment and refreshments will be included.

Now this opportunity is open to all Students at the University to get involved and plant a tree!

The experience is also an ideal team building activity, to develop coordination and communication skills whilst working together on a collaborative task. If you would like to book your team, friends or society onto the sessions, then please email the Sustainability team directly for team bookings; sustainability@hud.ac.uk

(Please note Participants will be confirmed on a first come, first served basis. All final bookings will be confirmed, in the event of low attendance or severe weather conditions bookings may be cancelled, or an alternative session offered).
