Council Support-Bog LinkedIn-LF

We have been supporting Councils to manage their trees to manage trees for decades.

From Parish Councils to Metropolitan Borough Councils, we manage and advise on over 100,000 trees per year, providing proportionate, cost-effective tree risk management that enables over 20 councils to meet their duty of care for trees and public safety.

Recognising that tree risk was not adequately understood, we brought together risk experts, tree managers, arboriculturists and landowners to in two seminars in 2006 and 2007, with the Centre for Decision Making and Risk Management DARM and the Arboricultural Association, and subsequently were founding members and are continuing contributors to the National Tree Safety Group (NTSG), publishing Common Sense Risk Management of Trees.

Damian Corfield, cabinet member for environment at Dudley Council, said: “Treework Environmental Practice has worked with us for the past two years, carrying out an inventory of the council’s tree stock. This has provided us with up-to-date information on our tree population and its condition, enabling us to be proactive with our approach to maintenance and to prioritise work. Treework applied their expertise in tree risk management to support us in meeting our duty of care for trees in a cost-effective way. It has also helped us carry out our Ash Dieback surveys across the parks and countryside sites in the borough and provided specialist officer support.”
