The Woodland Trust is the largest woodland conservation charity in the UK.  It has planted over 50 million trees since 1972. They mount an annual national contest which "celebrates urban trees in our neighbourhoods, from city parks and busy town centres to residential streets. Each one is a locally-loved ancient or veteran tree with a fascinating story, as well as supporting urban wildlife, cleaning our air, boosting wellbeing and much more. A tree may be a village’s oldest inhabitant, a founding figure in a region’s identity or a natural monument integral to a nation’s story. It can also be a much-loved local landmark, a place to play and exercise, a gardener’s pride and joy or a space for communities to gather." See amazing photos and vote to help  crown a Tree of the Year 2023 champion. The winner will represent the UK in the European Tree of the Year competition!
