OVER 550 trees and grasses were planted at The Grange Burn Creek near Greed Street on Thursday morning as part of a planting day aimed at improving wellbeing and helping to combat climate change.

The event was organised by Glenelg Hopkins Catchment Management Authority (GHCMA) and Wellways, as part of the Grange Burn Restoration Project, and provided people with an opportunity to improve their mental health while taking steps to offset their carbon footprint.
