County Councillor Shaun Turner, Lancashire County Council's cabinet member for environment and climate change, said:"Our area is one of the lowest for woodland coverage and this grant will help us to address this crucial issue.

Coun Jane Hugo, Blackpool Council Cabinet Member for Climate Change and Environment, said: “We welcome this funding along with Lancashire County Council and Blackburn with Darwen. It will help our organisations working collaboratively to continue and enhance the positive work that is being undertaken across the region and locally in Blackpool to improve our green spaces, treescape and woodlands. Here in Blackpool we already have a robust Green and Blue strategy and tree strategy.

Hannah Bartram, Chief Executive Officer, Association of Directors of Environment, Economy, Planning and Transport, said: “The Woodland Creation Accelerator Fund is set to make a real difference, supporting local authorities to accelerate their tree and woodland planting plans and helping to tackle the climate change and biodiversity crises.
