Rather than discarding trees that needed to be removed, the council wanted to repurpose the timber by providing it to local Men’s Sheds groups to craft benches for community parks. Dryad Tree Specialists was proud to support Elmbridge Borough Council in this sustainable project.
A Circular Approach to Urban Forestry
This initiative ensured that the trees removed from the borough continued to serve the community in a new way. By repurposing the timber into benches, the project promoted:
- Locally sourced materials – Reducing environmental impact
- Locally made products – Supporting community craftspeople
- Sustainable reuse – Giving felled trees a second life
- Community involvement – Bringing people together to create lasting benefits
Our Role in the Project
We processed the felled trees into high-quality planks suitable for bench construction. These planks were then provided to the local Men’s Sheds, where skilled craftspeople transformed them into durable, hand-crafted benches.
Delivering a Lasting Impact
- Repurposed locally sourced timber for public use
- Created sustainable seating for parks and open spaces
- Encouraged community-led woodworking and craftsmanship
- Reduced waste by turning felled trees into something meaningful
Why Elmbridge Borough Council Chose Dryad Tree Specialists
- Commitment to sustainable urban forestry
- Expertise in timber processing and repurposing
- Strong community engagement and environmental responsibility
- Ability to provide high-quality materials for public projects
A Project That Brought the Community Together
Seeing locally sourced timber turned into benches for public spaces was an incredibly rewarding experience. It was a great project for the community, combining sustainability, craftsmanship, and public benefit.
If you’re looking for innovative ways to repurpose felled trees for community projects, Dryad Tree Specialists can help bring your vision to life.
