Wales Tree Warden Forum
The Tree Council’s Wales Tree Warden Forum will this year be set in the stunning surroundings of Llanerchaeron in Ceredigion, Wales.
This special regional gathering brings together Tree Wardens, volunteers, and local champions from across Wales to connect, share experiences, and deepen their knowledge of trees and community engagement. Hosted with the support of the National Trust, the forum offers a unique opportunity to explore one of Wales' most celebrated parklands while taking part in a day of inspiring talks, practical insights, and meaningful discussion.
Whether you are an experienced Tree Warden or new to the role, the forum is designed to support and strengthen your work in protecting, planting, and promoting trees within your community. With talks covering topics from Wales' Celtic Rainforests to monitoring and evaluating newly planted trees, the day is set to be an informative and rewarding experience.
