The first was to present a concept to the Arborists’ Working
Group, they bought into the idea and so for the second meeting a much smaller
team went off to the playpen (thanks Andy Poynter!) to begin to put flesh onto
the bones.
The underlying idea appears to be simple, but in the past
taking the idea forward bore all the hallmarks of nailing jelly to the
wall. This time round there are a number
of external actors that appear to be encouraging the project, some are looming on
the horizon, others have added some immediacy and urgency to the task, as well
as an increased possibility of success.
Much to be done in a relatively short time to create a
structure for the project, then it can be populated by willing volunteers!
