The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee

The Queen's Green Canopy (QGC) is a unique tree planting initiative created to mark Her Majesty's Platinum Jubilee in 2022 which invites people from across the United Kingdom to "Plant a Tree for the Jubilee". See https://queensgreencanopy.org for the full history and background to the project.

In 2012 parish and town councils in Northamptonshire and across the country did a brilliant job celebrating The Queen's Diamond Jubilee by lighting beacons. Councils are encouraged to do the same on 2 June 2022 in celebration of The Queen's Platinum Jubilee.

To find out what us involved and how to go about it, please find below:
