The trees will cost £400
Memorial benches to remember loved ones are to be scrapped in Blackpool. Instead, people will be encouraged to plant a tree as a lasting tribute to someone who has died. Residents will be charged £400 for a Celebration Tree which would be planted in one of the town’s parks, although new areas of woodland could also be created.
But space for benches is running out and the council says it cannot continue to cover the costs of maintaining them. People could also choose a Celebration Tree to mark an important event such as a wedding or special anniversary. The council says it will continue to maintain existing memorial benches but is changing the service to offer Celebration Trees in partnership with Trees for Streets which already works with 17 councils around the country.
There will be a dedicated website offered by Trees for Streets which will work with residents wanting to create a memorial to their loved one. The report adds: “The success of these partnerships elsewhere has resulted in an increase in the quantity of trees planted and provided another route for the community to take part in improving the environment for the benefit of the future.
