Volunteering with us
Due to the nature of woodland creation, our available volunteering opportunities depend on the time of year.
In the winter (from November to February), you can find yourself planting trees in all weathers. In spring and summer, you can sneak a peek behind the scenes at the Arium, joining in our seed sowing sessions every Friday. In autumn, you'll be out collecting seeds in parks and green spaces for the next round of planting.

New sites
Suggest new locations for tree planting
Please note, suggestions will be investigated to establish their suitability for woodland planting (not all sites are suitable). Unfortunately due to the high volume of suggestions, we cannot contact you with progress of individual site suggestions. If they are suitable, they will progressed, so look out for them at the consultation or site preparation and planting stages!
Reporting woodland vandalism
To report cases of woodland vandalism in our new planting sites, please email us at woodlandcreation@leeds.gov.uk with the site location and perceived damage.
