The Wandsworth Tree Warden Network is a member the Tree Council’s National Tree Warden Scheme which was launched in 1990. We are all local volunteers, resident in the London Borough of Wandsworth, and as local tree champions we are the eyes and ears of our neighbourhoods in all things tree.
We currently have over 70 Tree Wardens who are resident in different parts of the borough. Our wardens have no formal experience or training in tree matters but they all share a passion for trees and an appreciation of the many benefits that trees provide to the local environment. We are independent of Wandsworth Borough Council although we work and share information and ideas with the council and they support our work through grants and providing meeting space.
We have a small committee of 6 Tree Wardens who meet regularly to guide the work of the Tree Wardens and liaise with the Council.
