Dear Anthony Jones,

 

In response to your Freedom of Information request, please see the
Officer's response below.

 

2020/21 - We have had a direct tree planting programme to the value of
£37,000 which involved planting of 563 individual trees of varying
specifications.

 

In addition to this, there has been additional community woodland planting
initiatives involving various community groups and our local nature
partnerships with trees provided by a range of sponsors and funding
sources. Therefore, the above figure is significantly higher but we do not
have this figure recorded.

 

I trust this answers your request and if you have any queries please don't
hesitate to contact us.

 

Kind regards,
