IRATA LEVEL 1 Looking to get into arboriculture as a climber

All they will throw your way is incinerator work in Maidstone. Don't do it, money is crap and you have to wait 60 days after sending the invoice off to get paid! Long shifts and crap management! I was doing rope access before tree work, have a years experience now. Did cs30 31 38 39. Irata won't convert over mate have to do the tickets. I came to oz and got my foot in the arb world starting here. My irate just ran out, don't think I'll bother renewing it, bit of a hit n miss industry even when you have a trade to do on the ropes

Where abouts do you rock climb? I'm just the other side of tunbridge wells when I'm in england

I agree i think the work can be hard to get hold of but i need to stick with it. Barely been looking 5 mins really so not giving up yet. I'm going to get tickets for at least cs30 and 31 though as this can help a lot to get geotech work. I've currently got a friend at CAN uk though so fingers crossed there.

 

Quite often venture down to the sandstone but prefer getting up to the peaks whenever possible. Always looking for people to climb with, sister is working abroad this summer and current partner is a bit flakey to be honest. Give me a shout if your interested in getting out there when home. I climb at the reach in woolwich and arethusa during weeknights after work
