Premier has teamed up with some of its customers and the Woodland Trust to create new hedgerows in West Yorkshire.
Keighley was the location of Premier’s most recent tree planting day, with staff from its Leeds branch and its Carbon Capture customers taking part in a tree planting project to support the Woodland Trust’s Morehedges scheme - an initiative that provides saplings, advice and funding for new hedging projects at sites around the UK. On the day over 500 saplings were planted to form part of a planned 600m of hedgerow.
Premier’s work with the Woodland Trust began over ten years ago. To date the company and its customers have raised in excess of £1.37m for the Woodland Trust, planting over 354,000 trees and capturing over 82,000 tonnes of CO₂.
