One of our key items this November is the launch of ‘Trees of Swanage’ tree trail. Trees are essential for life, they combat climate change, support wildlife and add beauty to our world. They are important in our culture, history, diet and spiritual wellbeing.

The Greening Swanage working group of Sustainable Swanage have put together Swanage’s very first tree trail! We have selected 10 trees or groups of trees from King Georges playing field across the seafront and towards beach gardens and produced a leaflet with short section of information on each tree, images and a map. We have been involved in new tree planting projects in town in the past few years but are also keen to promote and celebrate the beautiful trees we already have. We encourage people to get in touch with their favourite trees, stories to share that contribute to the next trail! Collect the leaflet from Swanage Information Centre or download here.
