The seven endangered trees at Dixon Clark Court are still standing as at 17 October, ie nearly two weeks after their second deadline, the first having been in March. This is thanks to several tree protectors who are camping at the site at Highbury preventing the council’s developers from chopping them down to make way for a private block of flats and also to a relentless press campaign by many others. XR Islington and other community groups and individuals are determined to fight for the trees. Islington’s trees desperately need more protection so please sign this petition. Currently only 400 (that’s just 1%) of our local trees have any protection at all and this should be 100%. Please have a read and if you can, sign and spread the petition to everyone you know in Islington who cares about our trees. Many thanks. Petition is here
