Get your hands dirty! Bring your green fingers!
How about some back-to-nature volunteering where small individual gestures add up to something far greater? We’re thrilled to be teaming up again with Think & Do Camden, KOKO Foundation, and the Communi-Trees project to bring more greenery to local Camden Estates! Over the past month, we've been getting stuck in—preparing the ground, planting trees, and laying the foundations for lasting environmental change. Now, we’re wrapping up this phase of the project with a creative and community-driven celebration.

What's the deal?
The fantastic Communi-Trees project is all about connecting local residents with nature, acting as a springboard for climate action while simultaneously greening the borough, enriching biodiversity, improving health and wellbeing, and alleviating the impacts of climate change. It’s a flagship KOKO Foundation project in partnership with Think & Do and Camden County Council, bringing self-governed mini forests to eleven local estates, including two orchards.
This time, we’re celebrating the work of the past month with a hands-on creative session! Instead of tree planting, we’ll be painting tree dedication signs and bird boxes—adding the finishing touches to this incredible community effort. If you love getting artistic and want to leave your mark on the project, this is the perfect way to get involved.
What's the deal?
... and what's the vibe on the day?
🌱 Creative, relaxed, and community-focused. Think paintbrushes in hand, warm drinks, and good conversations. You'll be part of a kind and friendly group of people making a lasting difference to an urban estate.
☕ Hot drinks? Yes! Muddy boots? Probably! A little bit of wholesome fun? Absolutely.
💡 You don’t need any specific skills—just enthusiasm! All materials will be provided, and our friendly Student Events Host will be there to welcome you, so you won’t be alone.
This is our chance to wrap up all the hard work of the past month and celebrate what we’ve achieved together. We'd love to see you there!
