I have been working in Arboriculture since 2005 and hold a Technician's membership with the Arboricultural Association. I have a Lantra certificate in Professional Tree Inspection gained in April 2016 and attended an Advanced Tree Inspection course delivered by Simon Scotting Tree Consultancy & Training in December 2015. I also completed a level 4 National Diploma in Arboriculture in 2017 with the very well respected Treelife.
I have full professional indemnity with Trust Insurance for £1million which covers me to give professional arboricultural advice.
After completion of a Bsc degree with Honours in Environmental Science & Geography Pat spent a year working and travelling in British Columbia, Canada.
"It was an action packed year with most of my free time spent hurtling down snowy slopes on my snowboard, having heart stopping encounters with black bears while mountain biking and swimming in stunning glacier fed blue lakes surrounded in snow capped mountains.
Being an outdoor man, I became very interested in working more specifically with trees and woodlands. On my return to the UK I attained an NVQ in Environmental Conservation with the British Trust for Conservation Volunteers. This gave me an excellent practical grounding which then lead to me becoming the Assistant Forestry Warden for the National Trust at Dudmaston Estate, Shropshire. Another, incredibly valuable learning experience where I gained qualifications in chainsaw use, pesticide & brushcutters.
By this stage I was hooked on working with trees! My aims and goals were very clear and I spent the next 4 years building up my experience, training & development with an Approved Arboricultural Association contractor (Silvanus Services Ltd) undertaking roles as a team leader and a climbing arborist. The following 2 years were spent more specifically in woodland management. I got a job as Woodland Manager for a 160 acre Ancient, Semi-Natural Woodland - Brockley & Chelvey Woods (link to case study). This allowed me to gain experience in planning, marketing & developing woodland enterprises as well as initiating a significant woodland restoration project. At the same time I gained a part time position with Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust (GWT) working in one of the largest Ancient woodland sites in the South West - Lower Woods. My focus here was to run the tree felling team and to develop woodland enterprise:- firewood, timber, charcoal & coppice products in particular. The aim for the GWT was to become a self funding woodland management exploring different income streams to cover the running costs of day-today management tasks.
After my experiences,training and lessons learnt I then felt well equipped and motivated to start up Treeation - Tree Surgery & Woodland Management."
