Million Trees for Belfast Initiative

Queen's are partners within the Million Trees for Belfast Initiative with over 600 trees planted in support of the initiative.

Students plant trees as part of the Million Trees for Belfast Initiative

The Million Trees for Belfast Initiative is a collaboration between public, private and voluntary section. In collaboration with community groups, staff and students over 500 saplings have been planted within Malone Playing Fields, with a range of mature trees planted throughout the campus. 

The saplings were provided by local community group Sans Souci Residents Association. They are based within a brownfield site owned by Queen's, who in collaboration with TCV rejuvenated the site into Lennoxvale Tree Nursery. The nursery is a great place to grow native trees, and has allowed for 2000 trees to be nurtured since 2019, all of which have been planted within Belfast as part of the One Million Trees for Belfast Initiative.
