Newquay Residents Called to Action in Community Tree Mapping Effort

Newquay Town Council has launched the Newquay Tree Survey, urging locals to get involved in a collective effort to map out the town’s tree population.

This green campaign is accessible via the Treezilla app and aims to develop a comprehensive tree strategy for the urban area.

How to Participate

Residents of Newquay are encouraged to download the Treezilla app, which is available for free, and start mapping trees within their locality. This can also be done through the website treezilla.org. By logging the details of local trees, participants will contribute directly to the future wellbeing of Newquay’s green landscape.

The Goal

The data collected from the Newquay Tree Survey will play a crucial role in forming the Newquay Tree Strategy. This strategic plan will focus on protecting the existing tree canopy while identifying potential areas for new growth, ensuring the town’s verdant character thrives. Participation in this survey is pitched as an easy, free activity that is open to all residents, regardless of their botanical background.

Why It Matters

Trees are vital to urban environments for enhancing air quality, providing shade, and improving urban wildlife habitats. By engaging the community in mapping efforts, Newquay Town Council hopes to foster a greater appreciation and proactive involvement in local environmental efforts.

Get Involved

For those interested in joining the survey, more information is available on Newquay Town Council’s environmental services page at Newquay Environmental Services – Trees. Here, potential volunteers can find detailed instructions and the benefits of participating in the tree mapping process.

Newquay Town Council is calling on all community members to help safeguard the natural beauty of our town by documenting its green assets. This is a chance for residents to play a part in environmental conservation from the ground up. Get involved today and help shape the future landscape of Newquay.
