Given a chance children love trees

They love to climb on them, in them, under them and over them, they play hide and seek behind them. Later woods are places of adventure, a natural playground to explore the world, a playground and a place to learn about the world.

How many of us can remember a tree that we used to climb up as a child? Or, if we were lucky, we knew a special tree, perhaps a fruit tree, a blossom tree, or a tree with beautiful autumn colour?

One of the strongest motivations to protect and preserve trees is so that future generations may enjoy them as we did and our children and grandchildren do.

Image shows one of the old Beech trees in High Beech at Epping Forest, a popular place for families and children to play.
