Trees for Cities is working with Poplar HARCA to restore and improve the green spaces around Grundy estate. Key areas will be the communal gardens in Elizabeth Close and Chilcot Close, where tree planting, landscaping and the installation of seating will provide beautiful community spaces for local people to enjoy.

The project will also work with local residents to improve their own green skills so that private as well as public gardens can reach their full potential, whether that be planting for wildlife, food growing or swapping the invasive weeds for more aesthetic planting. We want to inspire people with all things green to help make this a happy and healthy neighbourhood.

This project is supported by News International, Help a London Child (95.8 Capital Radio), The City Bridge Trust and The Esmee Fairburn Foundation.
