Welcome to our Tiny Forest

Bensham Grove Tiny Forest was planted on 21st March 2024, in partnership with North East Community Forest, Gateshead City Council, and Living Woods CIC. Over the course of a busy planting day, 76 pupils form the nearby St. Aidan’s Primary School helped to plant the trees, alongside local residents and representatives of local environmental groups.
