Established by Mark Newton in 1999 and now part of The Property Franchise Group, the Newton Fallowell estate agency network, which is celebrating 25 years in business, has pledged to plant 25,000 trees to help tackle climate change.
David Spackman, Newton Fallowell MD, said: “We started this initiative back in 2021, when we pledged to plant a young tree every time one of our offices ‘planted’ a Sold board. Since then, thousands of trees have been planted and by the end of this year we have committed to planting a grand total of 25,000 trees.
He added: “We are very aware of the important role that trees play in absorbing and storing the carbon dioxide emissions that are driving global warming. To date we have planted 23,000 trees, and it is estimated that this will have eliminated 276 tonnes of C02 emissions.
As a business, according to Spackman: “Much has changed since 1999 – for example many of Newton Fallowell’s franchisees now provide residential lettings services as well as estate agency and financial services and are continually evolving, innovating and adapting our business model so that we continue to meet the needs of our clients. Providing excellent customer service remains at the heart of everything that Newton Fallowell stands for, and we are looking forward to the next 25 years in business.”
And, with roughly 40 branches across the East and West Midlands, further growth is anticipated.
