We propose to increase native tree planting by councils in public green spaces and on streets, & to involve communities in community woodland tree planting days organised by the councils.

That sounds great, I love the plans and will share locally too.
Could I suggest you bring your communities even more on board, and instead of saying "organised by the councils", put the communities in the centre e.g. "with communities, for communities, supported by councils"?
The top down narrative can be so ingrained in us!
@corkgreens I love this initiative. I’m intrigued by the focus on *native* trees though.
It seems likely the climate will be markedly different within 50 years, so do we not need some carefully considered diversity in the mix? https://seethroughnews.org/safely-plant-more-diverse-trees-new-woodland-now
