5 November 2020 - UW CEO, Andrew Lindsay, planted the first tree in the UW woodland at Bryn Arw in the Brecon Beacons, recently.

Set up earlier this year, the UW Foundation has committed to fund the planting of a tree for every customer who signs up to all of our services, with the ambition to plant 100,000 trees in the first year.

Once complete, the woodland, which is the size of 70 Wembley pitches, will absorb 20,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide.
