Fatality in Dorset

[Lloyd Jerrey]

Just found this, not sure if its been posted and don't know anything about it but all the same horrible to hear and sadly all to familiar!

 

BBC News - Tree surgeon dies falling from tree in Dorset

 

Condolences to family and friends!

[David Humphries]

All too frequent now, this is getting to be very concerning.

 

Yet again, incredibly sad news.

 

I would like to think HSE & AA will get a statement out to the industry to not just show support toward the families but also to highlight what certainly appears to be a growing & worrying trend.

 

 

some members are from that area, we may get to hear more.

This. How long will they leave it I would of thought after one death they would of relased a statement but there seems to have been quite a few posted on here recentley, surely if they do release a statement they could tell training providers or NPTC to start incoperating it into courses.

 

Thoughts with those that new him

Thats a bit close to home. I used to have an office in Ringwood.

 

Not heard any more about it though.

 

Thoughts to friends and family.

[Arbre]

Very close to me, been texting local climbers but no info back yet, waiting to hear and wondering how and why.

 

I've been having a fun day up in the trees myself, nice weather and some challenging yet enjoyable deadwooding, then all emotions change when I got home and hear someone within a few miles has fallen - makes it all seem not worthwhile.

[Jonesie]

Never good to hear thoughts to his family and friends, climb safe guys the heat can get to you so take plenty of water on board.
