“It was really exciting to view the plans for the project, and that Faughan Valley is a Woodland Trust Priority over the next number of years,” said Cllr Fleming.
“We heard of the importance of woodland for the environment, farms and wildlife and the work the Trust carries out along with its volunteers to plant more trees and educate the general public.
“We also discussed connecting up with other projects in the City like the new greenways and the local area plans and were pleased to hear the Trust is involved in those partnerships.”
