Free trees on offer from the Royal Borough

A chance to increase the greenery in your garden is on offer from the Royal Borough.

The council has 5,000 saplings to give away to residents, on a first come first serve basis.

Cllr Derek Wilson, cabinet member for planning, said: "These trees will hopefully increase the numbers growing in the borough, particularly within towns and villages where they are most needed, and so improve the environment for all.”

The trees can be picked up from the Braywick Heath Nursery in Braywick Road, Maidenhead, or from Sunningdale Parish Council on Broomhall Lane until January 17.

Proof of residency within the Royal Borough is needed, or a token from the latest issue of the Around the Royal borough magazine.
