Damaging trees and plants on public land is a serious criminal offence.
Tree vandalism can include poisoning, pruning, ringbarking, burning, removing or destroying plants.
Our Tree Management Policy PDF, 188.49 KB explains how we work to reduce tree vandalism, and how we respond when trees are vandalised.
