Welcome to our Tiny Forest

This Tiny Forest, located in Southall Recreation Ground Ground, was planted in partnership with Canon Europe and Ealing Council, with support from local community organisation, Southall Transition, in February 2024. The planting day was attended by children and parents of Greenfield Nursery School and Children's Centre. Employees from Canon Europe's nearby offices came along to complete the tree planting in the afternoon, alongside local residents to the park.
