Growing Greener Neighbourhoods: Our Partnership with Trees for Cities
At C. Anderson & Sons, we’ve always believed that being a family-run business means looking after more than just the plumbing and heating of the homes we serve. For over 50 years, our family has been committed to supporting the people and communities that make London such a special place to live.
Our partnership with Trees for Cities is one of the ways we’re putting that commitment into action.
Trees for Cities is the UK’s only charity dedicated to planting trees at a national and international scale, transforming urban spaces and improving air quality, biodiversity and wellbeing in neighbourhoods across the country. Their work brings local communities together to rejuvenate forgotten spaces and create greener, healthier environments, especially in areas facing social or environmental challenges.
🌳 275 New Trees Planted — Thanks to You
We are delighted to share an important milestone: 275 trees have already been planted in the first 6 months of our partnership.
This is only possible thanks to the continued trust of our customers. Every installation of a hydrogen-prepared boiler carried out by our own fully trained, in-house engineers helps support new urban planting projects across the UK.
These trees are already making an impact by:
- Improving air quality
- Cooling and protecting urban spaces
- Boosting biodiversity
- Creating more vibrant, resilient local environments
Together, we are helping to grow green spaces that will benefit communities for generations.

Why This Partnership Matters to Us
Our collaboration with Trees for Cities aligns closely with our ethos:
- Supporting urban greening in areas that need it most
- Encouraging healthier, cleaner streets for London families
- Backing community-led environmental projects
- Leaving a positive legacy in the neighbourhoods we’ve served for over 50 years
For us, environmental responsibility and community responsibility go hand-in-hand. Whether we’re installing a boiler, responding to a 24/7 emergency call-out, or planting the seeds of a greener future, the goal remains the same:
to support the people of London with integrity and care.
Looking Ahead
We are only halfway through our 1st year of our planting commitment, and we’re excited to share more milestones as our partnership continues. With your support, we will bring many more trees — and far-reaching environmental benefits — to London and beyond.
