The Woodland Trust has uncovered a forgotten treasure, the Royal Record of King George VI’s Coronation. This incredible record details all the tree planting undertaken by thousands of schools, parishes, organisation's and home-owners in 1936/7, in gardens, parks and public spaces, and even names the individuals across the UK and the world who planted the trees.
The Trust have taken on the painstaking challenge of digitising the 1937 Royal Record which is now available online to search the records and locate trees planted near to where you live or find out if relatives or neighbours planted trees by visiting The Royal Record.
The Trust hope local people will be inspired by the Royal Record to get involved in the Trust’s ambitious plan to plant a million garden trees. You can be part of this nationwide transformation by pledging to plant a tree.
