Maxilla Gardens is an oasis of calm in the heart of a busy inner London neighbourhood. @MayorofLondon funded it because all Londoners deserve green space to boost their wellbeing. Thank you @Tayshan62 @gtkworld for leading this fantastic project for Londoners @metecoban92

Tree in trouble 🌳🛑
We're often seeing trees that are at high risk of failing as a result of their planting conditions. If you see a tree in trouble please report to your council directly or via an app like @fixmystreet (And chase up if nothing is done).
Be a tree friend 💚
ALT Three trees that are being damaged by the structures they'd been planted into - be it the straps, cages or pit frame. These need immediate attention.

🌡️🏙️Temperatures in towns and cities are often warmer due to the urban heat island effect.
🌳Trees provide shade and can cool the air through evapotranspiration.
📢As UK temperatures increase, we’ll face hotter summers and need to be prepared by protecting and planting trees.

NEW: The National Drought Group has announced that parts of the country have moved into drought.
Londoners—please play your part by saving water at home.
I’m urging water companies to act swiftly to stop the leaks which are leading to millions of gallons of water being wasted.
