The Tree Council

The Tree Council actively supports community tree, hedgerow, and orchard projects that boost agricultural productivity and creating green spaces that promote physical and mental well-being. You can find out more about our current grant funding programmes below.

Branching Out Fund
Branching Out provides grants ranging from £250 to £2,500 in value to community groups, schools, small registered charities, and Tree Warden Networks – with a quicker decision for those seeking funding below £500.

Orchards for Schools
Schools can register for our Orchards for Schools grant and to receive their orchard and/ or hedgerow pack, an engaging set of supporting resources and training, designed by experts and teachers, that are linked to the national curriculum.

Network Rail Community Tree Planting Fund
The Tree Council and Network Rail are once again working in partnership to deliver a programme of community tree planting for the 25/26 tree planting season.
