Hello, I am brand new to this forum and know very little about trees - or nature! I am a playwright researching heartwood and heart-rot, specifically in trees found in Scotland, where my play is set. This is my sixth play. I would be most grateful if anyone could help answer some questions to ensure I get my facts right and do all tree-lovers proud with this play; I've found this process a fascinating one with the research I have done so far and value any tips or support you good people can offer. Hope to hear from you! Paul L Martin

In celebration of the International Year of Forests, 2011, the Arboricultural Association Scottish Branch and Forestry Commission Scotland are working together in aid of a new charity fund-raising event: Climb a Mile. This will involve a team of professional arborists climbing a tree in relay to achieve a total height equal to or greater than one mile. This will be held in the stunning grounds of Scone Palace. Participants will be climbing one of the magnificent specimen trees in the arboretum. This will be held on the 18th and 19th of June. Participants will be expected to raise sponsorship money to be given in entirety to the Help for Heroes charity. We need as many climbers as possible to help us achieve the one mile goal, and to raise as much money for Help the Heroes as possible. This will be a great day - one not to be missed or forgotten! PDFs of the sponsorship form and Disclaimer form are attached below, or can be downloaded from here: Scottish - SC Branch - - Arboricultural Association.

Hi there, im new to here, basically im looking for work, full time or part time.I have had a good amount of training,cs units 30,31,32,39,40,41 and a lot of experience in felling, but have been unable to find much in the way of climbing work, although i still practice a couple of times a week if i have time. I am also studying for the AA tech cert, which is going well, but means i would something prefer part time. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated.
