THE WOODLAND Trust is holding an emergency conference this month to discuss how to save Somerset’s ancient trees.

Across the UK almost 84,000 ancient, veteran or notable trees could be in danger of disease or being cut down and in Somerset, 2,644 trees may be affected.

The Tree Alert app can be downloaded from www.forestry.gov.uk/treealert.
