Helensburgh Tree Conservation Trust, Scotland

Helensburgh Tree Conservation Trust, Scotland Tree Trust volunteers are passionate about conserving the town's exceptional street trees. Help keep our streets looking beautiful.

Tree Trust memberships contribute towards the upkeep and new plantings of Helensburgh's renowned street trees. The aim is to maintain existing trees, replace dead trees and plant new ones in new locations around the town. Volunteers are sought to help with occasional work parties that undertake minor maintenance works. The Trust's Directors seek funding to plant new trees and aim to plant these tr

ees in a planned manner so maximum impact is achieved with minimal funds. We liaise with National advice agencies to obtain the best help available.

Walk home tonight through the blossoms. Grew up playing on this street and we named many of these trees…and can still remember each by name 😂 A spectacular Street, expertly maintained by Helensburgh Tree Conservation Trust, Scotland!

Our new street trees and in particular those on Suffolk Street need a drink in this hot weather! If you’re nearby any new street trees, please give them some water – even a small bucket or watering can makes a huge difference.

Together we can keep Helensburgh green and thriving! 🌿💚
