Dartmoor Healthy Trees for Tomorrow

Are you keen to protect our trees? The Dartmoor Healthy Trees for Tomorrow team are looking for volunteers to help assess tree health.  You’ll be walking parts of Walkhampton Common and recording information in an app-based survey form on your mobile phone. Full training will be provided.

By sparing a few hours, you’ll be making a valuable contribution towards the protection and preservation of our National Park.

Survey days are on May 17 & 18 and June 7 & 8 2023
