Get inspired by Torriano Primary School in Kentish Town, London. They have planted new trees at their school with Lauren Child, author of Charlie and Lola. Their saplings, provided by our free tree packs for schools and communities program, are helping them make a positive impact, support wildlife and fight climate change.
