Great progress in practical climbing by trainee tree surgeon TN. He’ll be ready and confident to pass his next formal accredited training in a few months time 😊 #treesurgery #treesurgeon #trainonthejob

It’s just a stump…but represents 7 months of focused team effort to bring on two trainee #treesurgeons who started with us in Jan with no industry experience. They’ve made great strides under the guidance & mentorship of our experienced team. #CareerSuccess #arb #treesurgery

Cupressus in a tight spot with serious basal decay…a lovely tree & a great shame it had to come down. Amazing #teamwork by the men & woman in our team, who undertook the job methodically & safely, sharing skills & knowledge along the way. #treesurgery #treeesurgeons #arb

Taking a tree down can be a difficult decision. This one stood in an amenity woodland play area, constantly surrounded by children & its neighbour had already fallen unexpectedly, creating an early warning of the potential risk. #treesurgery #treesurgeons #hollowtree #arb

Working at lovely #FurzeyGardens in #TheNewForest We really must train these cows about the importance of respecting the #workexclusionzone 😂 #arb #treesurgery #treesurgeons *no cows were put at risk during the completion of these works 😊

Careful pruning of large dead wood overhanging well-used areas at Furzey Gardens in the New Forest…allowing this lovely charity to continue the community work they do AND ensuring the magnificent Oaks continue to thrive #arb #treesurgery #treepruning #treesurgeons #worksafe

Leo’s been with us for a few days of #workexperience He’s been involved in a range of operational tasks under supervision from our team, tried a few new activities & revisited things he’s done early in his college course. Might have a climber in the making @Sparsholt_Coll 😁

JB, JC & ZC are making good use of the MEWP to fell a declining, multi-stemmed Alder infected with #phytopthora & #crownreducing a Willow…all highly practical #learningonthejob for our #treesurgeonintraining ZC #treesurgeons #treesurgery #teamwork #arb

Expert aerial pruning in this lovely old Red Oak tree by expert climber JJ today…the tree is in slow decline with #HoneyFungus infection but cutting the dead wood back to live may rejuvenate it for a while longer. #treesurgeons #treesurgery #alwaysgetanexpert #arborist #arb
