Training

Trees for Cities offers training for individuals in either arboriculture or horticulture.

As well as training and qualifications, candidates are given the opportunity to gain practical experience on the variety of horticultural and arboricultural projects run by Trees for Cities. We have extensive experience in working with people who have been unemployed for some time.

Our training opportunities are supported by the government drive to improve the urban green workforce. Trees for Cities provides accreditation in green skills and also offers trainees support in seeking sustainable employment.

Funding comes through various sources, from employment agencies to smaller trust funds, and is aimed at helping London residents enjoy a more rewarding life.

“Trees are a luxury for all of us and we need this luxury for our health, mind and soul. Places become sad when there is no green, no life present. Trees balance our lives. I am happy to support Trees for Cities with all my heart.”
