The Tree Health Pilot has been live for 8 months. In this post, we share what we've learned so far and include an invitation to owners of sweet chestnut trees and oak trees.

With tree and woodland managers, we are designing a new range of grants as part of a future Tree Health scheme. I'll share more in this post.
