大象传媒

On Sunday, 25 November, 2007, many families came along to help 大象传媒 Radio Stoke plant a native woodland of hazel, cherry, and beech trees to name a few.

The tree planting event was part of 大象传媒 Radio Stoke's Happy Appeal; a year long campaign raising awareness and money for Macmillan Cancer support.听 To see more photos of the tree planting, and other Happy Appeal events, see the link at the top right hand corner of the page.

Digging it!

Far from being a sad occasion, it was touching to see people supporting each other, and all thought this was a very fitting way to celebrate a life, and remember a loved one.听听

Dad lends a helping hand

Helping out with all the hard work on the day were a team from the Newcastle Countryside Project.听

People also had to opportunity to add the name of their loved one to a list that will be engraved on a plaque and placed at the site in the future.听

Above all, the copse of trees represents your memories, and in years to come it will be the perfect place to visit, reflect, and remember.听

Take a breather ...

The trees were funded by the 大象传媒 Breathing Places Campaign, a project that aims to bring nature to you, whether it be on a large scale, or in your own back garden.听

There are lots of way you can enjoy the great outdoors,听 from a simple walk in the woods or, if you're feeling more adventurous, you can join your local community group to help create a breathing place where you live.听
