Often overlooked, trees play an important role in our lives both from an environmental and a welfare perspective. Maintaining the health of trees is an important job, and ensuring their safety is essential when considering new developments. Leading the way forward are the team from Arbor Cultural Ltd, award winners in the UK Enterprise Awards 2023. We take a closer look to find out more about the secrets of their success. Sustainable Tree Management Specialists of the Year 2023 - Southern England It’s easy to assume that trees are just a part of how we live our lives. Found in parks and streets and gardens across the country, they are easily taken for granted. The truth, however, is that trees can have a major impact on the decisions we want to make. The wellbeing of trees can affect the obtaining of planning permission, as well as the value of insurance and even the ability to buy houses. As a result, the value of having a team on hand who can break down the value of trees, defining what individuals have to do and what responsibilities companies have, cannot be overstated. Using technology and a lifetime of experience, the team at Arbor Cultural have made their mission the promotion of the value of trees and the urban forest. Since opening their doors, Tom Thompson and his talented team have inspected numerous trees, and produced detailed reports which have formed the basis on which decisions such as planning permission, and even house purchases, are made. The team work closely with architects, planning consultants, and developers as well as individuals that are project managing their own planning processes. Their specialist approach is carefully designed to mesh neatly with the efforts of their clients, allowing them to achieve their aims with ease. The Arbor Cultural team also work with conveyancers, estate agents, and surveyors as well as home buyers themselves to address the tree related concerns of their mortgage or insurance companies. Their knowledge has been highly valued when working through the intricacies of mortgages and insurance. It’s not just individuals that need help, however. The team at Arbor Cultural have worked with hotels, golf courses, school, hospitals, country parks, and large estates to address their tree related insurance and duty of care requirements. These clients often have large numbers of trees to care for, and must do so to the highest standards at all times. Needless to say, the comprehensive reports created by the Arbor Cultural team are delivered in an easily understood format, using CAD GIS, GPS, and BIM format mapping solutions to provide the clearest path to success. The use of technology in the business allowed the team to thrive during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although much of the firm’s work was outdoors anyway, technology opened the door to engaging with clients and connecting with their needs in spite of the various restrictions on travel and contact. Design team meetings and work meetings were performed online, and this has increased the level of flexibility of contact with clients significantly. Over the last few years, the Arbor Cultural team have started to move into exciting new areas, with more focus on tenders and term contracts. This has seen an overhaul of the firm’s company policies and procedures to stand up to the higher expectations of clients. The key areas of change have included updates to the company’s health and safety policies and risk assessments, and the creation of net zero, carbon reduction, and sustainability policies. With environmental concerns at the core of how many clients operate, knowing they can trust Arbor Cultural to provide an exceptional solution is paramount. The growth of Arbor Cultural reflects the incredible demand which currently exists when it comes to ensuring the safety of our natural environment. The team at Arbor Cultural have thrived in the challenges that they have faced over the last few years, and it is clear that their expansion of services is not going to slow down any time soon. We celebrate their tremendous efforts and look forward to seeing what they do in the weeks and months to come! Company: Arbor Cultural Ltd.
