Staff and student volunteers got involved in tree planting on campus earlier this month. We received 420 saplings as part of The Queen’s Green Canopy initiative, which were planted by volunteers in the space of a couple of hours on 1st February behind Sherbourne residences. The trees will create year round colour and include hawthorn, dog wood, wild cherry, silver birch, rowan and hazel. The University is committed to creating spaces for wildlife on campus and these trees with widen the wildlife corridor that runs along the campus boundary.

In addition to the tree planting, a double hedge of approximately 100 metres has been planted along the Spine Route from Radcliffe to the Sports Hub creating another wildlife corridor.
