Earth Day 2021
Every year, millions of people around the world mark Earth Day to show support for the environment. Want to get involved? Check out our top suggestions!
Earth Day, the annual event that takes place on on 22 April, is all about showing our love for planet earth, and looking at ways we can make our planet greener, happier and healthier. It was first held on April 22, 1970, and it now includes a wide range of events globally including 1 billion people in more than 193 countries. You can get involved by supporting our charity in various different ways, from doubling your donation, to shopping sustainably and even attending a yoga session! Read more below.
Double your impact
We're extremely excited to announce that we're included in The Big Give Green Match Fund, a match-funding campaign that means any donations we receive between 22nd and 29th April will be DOUBLED, meaning we can plant twice as many trees! Help us reach our goal - every little helps!
Check out our Earth Day partnership with Frasers Group
We have partnered up with Frasers Group for Earth Day, which will see sales proceeds from Sports Direct, House of Fraser and Flannels donated to our charity. Celebrating Earth Day and working with Trees for Cities is one example of Frasers Group’s commitment to improve the wellbeing of their customers and employees and is part of their wider sustainability work to tackle climate change. Together, we'll be planting trees and making cities greener, happier and healthier. A portion of the donations will go to our work in schools, encouraging young people to connect with nature and realise the benefits of being outdoors.

Planting healthier cities across the UK
Join our campaign to build #HealthierCities, and help us transform the health of our cities for generations to come.
Urban trees are superstars: they’re havens for wildlife, clean our air, provide shade, improve our mental wellbeing and so much more. By integrating trees into urban development, we can create the blueprint for smarter and healthier cities that'll benefit everyone! With 80% of us now living in urban areas, we now need our trees more than ever.
