One of our volunteers has added a testimony about what it’s like being a Tree Time volunteer:

“Volunteering with Tree Time has been a really rewarding experience for me. I’ve loved learning how to care for trees while contributing to my local parks and community. It’s such a positive, hands-on way to give back, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking to make a difference. It’s great to know that you’re helping to create greener, healthier spaces for the future.”

If you would like to contribute to a greener, more biodiverse future, please get in touch!

Feel free to join our mailing list for our community events and you are welcome to come and join activities throughout Edinburgh. Please contact info@elgt.org.uk to be added to the mailing list, or follow us on Facebook or Twitter.

Doing voluntary work not only makes the individual feel good but can raise the happiness levels of a whole community
