This is a particularly busy time and we are prioritising enquiries by urgency. We will do our best to get back to you as soon as possible.
You can help by:

- only reporting issues about trees where it’s necessary
- providing photographs and details of the tree and the danger presented (where possible)

Woodland projects
Big Wood regeneration project
The Big Wood regeneration project removed Corsican pine trees from a woodland in Bracknell.
The pine trees were replaced with native tree varieties to make a better habitat for wildlife, a place more enjoyable for recreation and that will provide a sustainable source of timber.
Crowthorne Road woodland project
We have started a long-term project to remove pine trees from a woodland in Bracknell.
The pine trees will be replaced with native varieties to make a better habitat for wildlife, a place more enjoyable for recreation and provide a sustainable source of timber.
