More than 1.9 million trees were planted in 2023 as part of a major project to boost woodland cover across northern England, it has been revealed.
The Northern Forest project will see 50 million trees planted from coast to coast and around cities such as Liverpool, York, Leeds, Manchester, Sheffield and Hull by 2043.
Since 2018, nearly eight million trees have been planted – with the highest number recorded last year, the Woodland Trust said.
