Tree planting in Queen's Park for the Platinum Jubilee

An oak tree and Indian Bean tree have been planted in Loughborough to mark Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

The tree planting ceremony took place in Queen’s Park in Loughborough on Friday March 11 in support of the Queen’s Green Canopy (QGC). It was led by Cllr Jenny Bokor, the Council’s lead member for Loughborough.

The Council’s open spaces partner idverde also attended the tree planting along with council officers and volunteers from Friends of Queen’s Park.

The Queen’s Green Canopy is a unique tree planting initiative which invites people across the country to ‘plant a tree for the jubilee’.
