This planting installed canopy trees and low growing groundcovers along a strip of Heaton Park that surrounds sporting fields. Greater Bank have donated 2,500 trees!
Recent studies have shown this area to be one of the hottest in terms of urban heat in Newcastle LGA. The local community regularly use the park to picnic and kick or throw a ball so the aim of the project is to provide shade and cool the area for the benefit of the local community.
Planting dates: To be completed by April, 2021
