The Platinum Copse

Due to the popularity and high demand for The Queen's Copse tree planting scheme, we are delighted to announce that a second area was identified to provide even more residents, community groups, organisations, clubs and businesses with the opportunity to sponsor a commemorative tree.

A further 80 trees were made available in 'The Platinum Copse' which will be situated in the south of the Abbey Meadows site. This site will provide a second area of protected wildlife habitat to encourage biodiversity.  

Applications for The Platinum Copse have now closed.

What happens next if I have sponsored a tree?

Thank you to those that have sponsored a tree. A list of names can be found on the Roll of Honour.

Tree planting will commence at both sites from the start of the planting season in November 2022 and is expected to take a couple of months to complete, depending on the weather and ground conditions.

Those who have sponsored a tree should have now received their certificate in the post. You will also receive an invitation to an official unveiling event which is expected to take place in Spring 2023. Once a date has been set we will let you know.

Whilst the copse will be closed to the public to ensure its protection, those who sponsor a tree will also be able to visit the site at an annual open day event.
