Open Spaces, Trees and Grass Cutting
We want our communities to be pleasant places to live, so we will work hard to keep open spaces, grassed areas and trees looking neat and tidy.

Open spaces and grass cutting
We want our communities to be pleasant places to live and as such work hard to keep open spaces looking neat and tidy. Each year our partner Glendale carries out services such as grass cutting, shrub bed maintenance, hedge cutting, weed control and litter collection.
Tree management
We are committed to maintaining the trees in our ownership as they make an important contribution to the character and environment of our communities. Trees have an important role in sustaining wildlife conservation and protecting a wide range of habitats. Trees are ‘self-optimising’, responding to their environment in a way that maintains a balanced and healthy structure. Our tree policy outlines the circumstances where we would consider carrying out any works to trees.
