Green Park doesn’t just be help to grow organisations – we also help to grow trees in towns and cities too. We’ve pledged to plant a tree for every leader we place, through an exciting new partnership with Trees for Cities.
We know that success can not be sustainable without an ethical corporate culture that is environmentally and socially responsible. By planting a tree for every leader we place, both permanent and interim, we intend to lead by example, proving that new century governance is not based on money but on building trust.
Trees for Cities are the only UK charity working at a national and international scale to improve lives by planting trees in cities. To date, Trees for Cities have planted over one million trees in towns and cities across the UK as well as abroad.

Tons Of Air Pollution Removed By London Trees
This partnership stems from Green Park's drive to create a better tomorrow. We’re committed to future proofing businesses by providing diverse and highly capable leaders who can guide them to success in the coming years. Now, we have the chance to future proof our environment too, by planting a tree for every leader we place, both permanent and interim.
Each year, London’s trees remove 2.4 million tons of air pollution including carbon dioxide, dust and other gaseous toxins. By planting more, we’re helping to make our city a better place for the next generation. And this reflects a concept that’s at the very heart of what we do as a business.
Trees for Cities gets stuck in with local communities to cultivate lasting change in their neighbourhoods - whether it's revitalising forgotten spaces, creating healtheir environments or getting people excited about growing, foraging and eating healthy food.
Rory Field, Corporate Partnerships Director at Trees for Cities, comments:
“We are thrilled to be working with Green Park and to be the trusted partner for their ‘Plant a Tree’ initiative. We strongly believe that what’s right for the environment and what’s right for business should go hand in hand. Green Park are demonstrating that they have their finger on the pulse by incorporating sustainability into their business plan and, as such, are a great fit for us as an environmental charity.”
"Green Park's proposal had diversity at the heart, rather than just an add on - and this gave us confidence that in working with them we would be partnering an organisation who held the same values as our own in this area."
