Tickets to Chester Zoo up for grabs by voting for your favourite woods

Add your favourite local trees and woodlands (and the places where you'd like to see more trees planted) to our people-powered map by the end of Friday (21st Sept), and you could win a pair of tickets to Chester Zoo. The interactive map will help shape The Mersey Forest Plan - our blueprint to create more woodlands and street trees across Merseyside and North Cheshire. As well as adding your own suggestions on the map, you can also vote for other people's ideas, and see which woodlands have made it into the area's top five favourites. Cast your vote now (competition ends after Friday 21st Sept).
