The Sycamore Gap tree was cut down a year ago sparking national outrage.

Now, Fergus' community in Backwell , near Bristol , will be one of the first to be gifted a sapling.

Fergus was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma (bone cancer) in January 2021 and was just 12 years old when he died in May 2022 .

His mum Ruth contacted the National Trust after hearing about the seedlings and young twigs rescued from the felled tree.

Sue wanted to create a wild sanctuary a place of recovery for others dealing with the problems Tina faced.

Tina died in 2020 , age 35 , following these struggles.

The National Trust has spent the last 40 years cleaning up the beaches that neighbour the former coalfield sites near where Tina ’s Haven will be established.

The hope is not only to restore nature here, but to help women recover from addiction and trauma.
