More Trees For B&NES Brief Description of Organisation More Trees BANES is a not-for-profit community group, that works hard to protect and plant trees in our local area. Set up in 2008, we are run entirely by volunteers. Visit Website Full Description of Organisation More Trees BANES is a not-for-profit community group, that works hard to protect and plant trees in our local area. Set up in 2008, we are run entirely by volunteers. We’ve planted approximately 8,000 trees so far, and are currently scaling up our work significantly. There is a huge groundswell of desire to plant and protect trees – we provide a simple means for people to take easy, positive actions. Everything we’ve achieved, has been through people rolling up their sleeves and helping out in their spare time. We have so much fun, getting our hands dirty, meeting like-minded people whilst spending time in the great outdoors. During the winter, we’re planting trees, and for the rest of the year, we go back to give the young trees TLC (weeding, mulching, restaking etc). As well as grunt work like this, we need volunteers to help us behind the scenes e.g. representing us at events, fundraising, spreading the word, planning projects, building our website, producing content, social media, managing finances etc. We would love to hear from you. Perhaps you have a little time on your hands and fancy coming along one of our planting/TLC events, or perhaps you’d like to help us behind the scenes. We need people to offer their time, and need help from skilled volunteers as well as those with no experience whatsoever.
