6,000 trees planted
By March 2025 Felton CAN volunteers had planted a total of 6,000 trees in and around Felton and Thirston. We are well on our way to achieving our aim to plant 10,000 by 2030.

The CAN Plan

Felton CAN will invite your comments and suggestions on our draft Plan for Climate and Nature, after our Special Event on 4th October at Felton Village Hall.
Keep your eyes peeled for details!

We recognise that any action that our villages can take will be very modest, given the scale of the challenges confronting our world, but believe that any contribution helps a bit and that collective action by communities across Northumberland can make a difference. Also, we believe that it is our shared responsibility to do whatever we can!
