Sheffield Street Trees Legal Fund 2018 2

Aim

This is fund is to provide support for legal costs of STAG, Sheffield Tree Action Groups and its supporters

STAG, Sheffield Tree Action Groups represents the local action groups across the city seeking to protect healthy street trees from unnecessary felling. The STAG Legal Fund exists to support legal actions by campaign supporters, to help with legal costs for campaign supporters who are prosecuted or subject to other legal actions.

The legal fund is administered by Chris Rust & Rebecca Hammond, Co-Chairs of STAG Steering Group, who will consult with the STAG Steering Group about any expenditure.

The funds are held by the Nether Edge Tree Fund, a separate organisation set up to manage a bank account and hold funds on behalf of Tree Campaign Groups and ensure that funds are spent according to their aims.

We are not actively appealing for legal funds at present but this Crowdfunder is in place for the people who contact us frequently to ask how they can give to the campaign.
