We are constantly looking at ways to become more sustainable construction contractors. Part of our drive for sustainability includes reducing our carbon footprint and giving back to the environment. We have recently been assisted in our efforts through a tree planting scheme devised by The Woodland Trust and Local Authority.
Utilising the Kent County Council Free Tree Scheme, we secured a grant of 200 trees to be planted on private land within the Kent boundary. This forms part of a wider scheme aiming for a target of an additional 1.5million trees to be planted in the county.
Our Plant Tree strategy seeks to boost the number of trees in Kent by 1.5 million. KCC is committed to planting 30,000 trees on its own land but we need many more sites to reach this ambitious target.
