About this event

Groundwork London works with local residents to help plant trees and shrubs to improve the White City Estate. The long-term goals are to improve air quality and promote biodiversity, while giving residents the chance to get to know each other, working with local residents to install green infrastructure – such as anti-flooding drainage schemes and green roofs.

In addition, Groundwork have set up a dedicated maintenance and horticulture training programme for residents looking to learn new skills called the ‘Green Team’.

Volunteers are needed to carry out general maintenance, and the planting of bulbs across the estate.
