As trees across the country are getting cut down for Christmas a group of volunteers have been working hard to do their bit to replace them. Around three hundred new trees have been planted at Dewsbury County park.
Dozens of Sheffield volunteers from the Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association got together for the mass tree planting session at the weekend. It forms part of a national campaign which is aiming to plant 50,000 trees by the end of December. They have already planted close to 40,000 trees this year.
"It gives us a great sense of pride that we can do our bit to help beautify the local area. It's important to us that we bring as many young people to these events as possible so they can gain a greater understanding and appreciation of the environment."
