Elva is our first female Arboricultural Consultant who joined our team in March 2021. Her experience to date has been dealing with the arboricultural elements for projects on all scales; from large scale national infrastructure schemes, to more intricate arboricultural applications. This has given her a great understanding of the planning process, no matter the size of the job. As well as dealing with arboriculture for outline residential schemes, detailed design and EIAs, Elva has also had experience conducting iTree assessments. This utilises her holistic understanding of trees and the environment and the importance of the ecosystem services trees provide.
