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

Annual Team Development Day…with refresher of our Trauma First Aid training, for #treesurgeons…hopefully it’ll never be needed but we’re as prepared as we can be to help a mate if we’re ever called on . #arb #treesurgery #worksafe #teamwork

Annual Team Development Day with refresher training & practice of aerial rescue skills…out two trainees have just passed their accredited course so a good opportunity to share recent lessons across the team . #arb #treesurgeons #treesurgery #teamwork #worksafe #workatheight

Happiest collection of families, children, dogs and rounders at the PTS team picnic yesterday 😊☀️😊. #teamwork #teamworkmakesthedteamwork #arb #smallbusinesslife #smallbusiness

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

#Trainee #Treesurgeon Toby continuing with his practice in a rope and harness under supervision from our experienced climbers - he’s looking pretty comfy up there! Next stage of his formal training is coming up soon…💪🏻😁💪🏻. #arb #trainonthejob #workoutside #treesurgery

Combination of work using a MEWP with rope and harness, maximising efficiency and safety. #arb #treesurgeons #treesurgery #teamwork

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 😁

#Traineetreesurgeons ZC & TN practicing aerial rescue with guidance from our experienced climbers . By the time they go into formal accredited training, we hope they’ll have a good grasp of the basics & feel confident 😁💪🏻😁. #treesurgery #treesurgeons #learnonthejob #arb

3 months in & #traineetreesurgeons Zak & Toby have passed their chainsaw courses & started - today - to familiarise themselves with work at height from a rope & harness. Huge props to the rest of the team for supporting their great progress so far…😁👏🏻😁. #treesurgery #arb

Natural props holding up this split Japanese Maple; beautifully pleached Hornbeam; deep decay wounds to the woodland Beech…all at @hidcotent Hidcote Gardens. #treesurgeons - we’re never too far from the trees 😊. #treesurgery #trees #arb #easter2024

Blue skies to finish the week after a day of heavy showers…here’s JJ pruning at height and #traineetreesurgeon TN getting a feel for the rigging under JB’s mentoring supervision. #treesurgery #treesurgeons #trainonthejob #teamwork #TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork #arb

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

Working at the community pond in #SherborneStJohn under AH’s experienced eye, TN is re-coppicing a Willow & #pruning #felljng & #pollarding. He’s safely kitted out in waders & buoyancy aid alongside his regular PPE 👍🏻😊👍🏻. #treesurgeons #treesurgery #treesurgeonintraining #arb
