Tree Warden Training - UK Squirrel Tree Damage Survey

The Tree Council is delighted to be working in partnership with UK Squirrel Accord and The National Forest, and we'd like to invite Tree Wardens, and others, to take part in a major survey to assess the damage caused to trees and woods by non-native grey squirrels – last estimated to cost England and Wales £37 million a year. To help you get started, we are pleased to be joined by Ed Hiorns from the National Forest and Kay Haw from the UK Red Squirrel Accord for an online training session. 

The session will include: 

- An introduction to the UK Squirrel Accord and The National Forest Partnership

- An understanding of the damage caused by grey squirrels 

- How to carry out a survey to assess the damage caused by grey squirrels 

- How to record your data and submit your records to the national survey  

This online training session will last approximately 2 hours with time for questions after the session has finished. 

Book your ticket to receive a meeting invite.
