The Leicestershire Scheme is coordinated by Leicestershire County Council and Stepping Stones Countryside Management Project. Established in the early 1981, trail blazing Leicestershire Tree Wardens were among the pioneers who inspired The Tree Council's national Tree Warden Scheme.
There are currently 180 Tree Wardens across 132 parishes, towns and boroughs working with community groups, local authorities and schools across the county to protect, promote and plant trees.
As coordinators we organise training and social events for our Tree Wardens as well as offering practical support and advice. We also run a Free Tree scheme giving Tree Wardens an opportunity to apply for up to 100 whips or 20 standard native trees for planting on community sites throughout Leicestershire.
