Leeds chosen for Sycamore Gap tree sapling
The Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease will receive a sapling grown from the Sycamore Gap tree as part of the Trees of Hope project. Following the felling of the famous tree on Hadrian’s Wall in Northumberland in September 2023 the National Trust has awarded 49 saplings to charities across the UK.
Ian Flatt, who has motor neurone disease, put the application forward for the Leeds centre to receive a tree.
