  1. Small update on my career change. I never know if anyone cares but here I am... So if you remember i popped a post up weeks ago asking for advice on getting in to the industry, the comment section turned in to a total sh#t show of 'Don't do it' 'Its not for women' 'you're to weak' 'Don't need women on site' Etc etc But anyway, didnt put me off. I've booked on for my cs30 in 2 weeks' time (sooner that orginally planned) and after sending out a bunch of emails looking for work experience, a guy has given me a chance, and I had my first day yesterday. He was impressed with my work ethic and hes recommended me to another guy who's offered me 2 further days work. So actually all is going great, the guy I worked with on the first day was excellent. Was happy to stop often and teach me as we were going and in return I worked my socks off. We (he) felled a tree and I cleared the ground, shifted tools, ran the chipper and did general ground stuff. It was a great day and I learnt alot and at no point did I feel my sex was a barrier.
  2. Hi not the best at advertising myself but will give it a shot im 21 years old, have CS 30,31,32 health and safety at work, and qualified harvester and forwarder operator. Do not currently have climbing or aerial rescue. Been working on harvesting sites for over a year now, felling mainly softwoods of a mixed diameter, some big stuff! snedding, cross cutting, brashing and all the usual stuff. Worked along side winches and other machiney. Looking to get into the climbing side of things now, utility or domestic either or. Purchased my own climbing kit last year and have been learning of my dad(15 years experience, now surveyor for SSE) for the past year, and have built up a good basic skills knowledge, looking to now progress to the next step with training. Any employers out there that would be willing to give me a start or even couple days here and there, to help out and see what its all about!! Being in a lucky situation of my parents staying in Forfar and me coming from Stranraer I am able to travel/work anywhere form Dundee, Perth etc to Ayrshire and Dumfries and Galloway. Have my own saws, PPE etc. Cheers, any help at all would be great.
  3. I have been a Tree Surgeon for nearly 10 years working mainly private in London and Kent and i am looking for a new career and hoping to transfer my skills that i have accrued over the years. I have so far thought of becoming a LANTRA trainer for climbing etc and recently discovered a new prospect of a Rope Access Technicians working on wind turbines for Siemens which sounds brilliant and is very well paid. So i am looking any advice or information on where I can go after Tree Surgery, if there is one...
