2/ Where you live in Bristol and the ~c80 years of Bristol socio-economics of these communities massively influences your access to 🌳

Tree coverage varies between 9% and 27% depending on where you live - not cool.

Interestingly gentrification is skewing this (for another day)
3/ Approx 1,300 hectares of Bristol is trees – and for half the year when the leaves are out that’s 13km2 of canopy. (That’s pretty good)

But upping this will enhance wellbeing, boost mental health, provide food for insects, birds & mammals, reduce flood risk and create shade.
4/ But where we plant these trees matters. We’re determined to rebalance our canopy to provide equal access to trees across Bristol.

The fantastic #onetreeperchild project has been a tremendous success across Bristol (see our community orchard being planted in St George)
