A SPECIALIST land-based training developer is billed to kick off a showcase event at Ragley Estate.
Lantra is opening the Arb Show 2022 which will feature at the prestigious APF Exhibition 2022 – the UK’s largest forestry, woodland, arboriculture, fencing and biomass show.
The event is set to attract around 22,000 visitors and more than 300 exhibitors, and will take place at the end of September.
Lantra will have its own stand and will deliver demonstrations of two-rope working in light of recent legislation changes in that field.
Stephen Roberts, head of instructor network at Lantra, is scheduled to be the first speaker at the event.
Mandy Maynard, Lantra’s national development manager, and Sean Duffy – head of industry partnerships will also be attending
Stephen Roberts said: “I am delighted to be speaking at this prestigious event and spotlighting training opportunities in forestry and arboriculture.
“So, if you want to learn more about training courses, or how to become a Lantra Instructor or Assessor, then I urge people to come to this event which is a major highlight in the forestry and arboriculture calendar.
“People are leaving the industry, maybe through retirement or pursuing other opportunities, so we need to attract more people in to drive forward the future of these sectors.
Sean Duffy, Head of Industry Partnerships in Forestry and Arboriculture, said: “Lantra is incredibly excited to be attending the show after the forced Covid break. It will be the first time we’ve been able to meet some of our industry contacts face to face since the last event back in 2019. We’re really looking forward to meeting our fellow F&A enthusiasts and sharing all that’s new from Lantra.”
The showcase takes place on from September 22 until September 24.
