We are thrilled to announce that Planning By Design has partnered with Treeapp, to support their mission of planting trees to fight climate change and restore vital habitats for hundreds of animal species globally. As a business, our carbon footprint is almost zero, but we recognise the importance of doing more to help save the planet. To celebrate our first 12 months of trading we have planted 422 trees, one tree for every project to date. Moving forwards, we will plant 10 trees for each client that instructs us. This is paid out of our profit, so you don't foot the bill. By doing this, we hope to offset some of the carbon and climate impact of our client's new developments, to contribute to a greener and healthier planet for everyone.
