Cllr Robini was given the tree, also known as a field maple, by Surrey County Council, where he also serves as a councillor, to kick-start the tree planting programme created to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in 2022.
Dr Ross White, Holy Cross Hospital’s chief executive, said: "When mature, the Acer campestre will be effective at carbon capture, so we are delighted that Cllr Robini asked us to be a part of this important initiative. I hope this will inspire other people to plant a tree too."
Cllr Robini said: "I am very grateful to Surrey County Council for their support of the planting trees projects and to Holy Cross Hospital for planting the tree in this tranquil area. I hope that it helps to provide patients and visitors some feeling of reflection."
