Trees are vital to the environment, offering numerous benefits for both people and the planet.

They help combat climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide, improve air quality, support biodiversity, and provide essential habitats for wildlife.

Trees also play a crucial role in water conservation, prevent soil erosion, and offer shade and cooling, contributing to healthier communities.

During National Tree Week, we celebrate these incredible natural resources and recognise the vital role they play in sustaining life on Earth.

Frank Our Thatcher’s Community Orchard Tree

Worcester Students' Union has our very own apple tree, named Frank, outside the SU building at St John’s campus. The tree was generously donated by Thatcher’s as part of their Community Orchard Programme. We invite you to visit Frank and see how he’s growing! He’ll also be making an appearance on social media during National Tree Week.
