Hi everyone
We've been trying to get this out to the Sheffield community through press releases to the Sheffield Star but they don't seem to deem the initiative important enough to publish - we would beg to differ!
So, do you want more trees for your kids schools?
So far, printing.com has planted 25,000 broad-leaved trees across the UK and this target has now been upped to an incredible 50,000 trees.
We also want to encourage local schools to make the most of their grounds by planting trees. This helps create woodland habitat, increases bio-diversity and, most importantly, provides an excellent learning resource – planting trees, watching them grow, seeing how wildlife is encouraged and charting the changing seasons and weather.
So, we've launched our 'Trees for Schools' initiative and we'd love all local schools to get involved.
Our tree planting partners, Tree Appeal, have planted trees in loads of schools in the UK and Ireland and are looking for more locations.
To nominate your local school, simply go to http://www.printing.com/about/nominate and fill out the online form. We'll be selecting based on the number of nominations we get for each school, so why not get parents involved to increase your chances?
Professor David Bellamy will also be turning up with the Tree Appeal planting team at five lucky schools throughout the year.
So, please get involved - this is a genuine campaign and it would be great to see some of the trees that are generated through sales from the Sheffield store actually planted back into the Sheffield area!
You can contact your local store on 0114 273 0614 if you'd like more details.
