Ash Dieback Update June 2022
We have been contacting all County Council managed schools since 2017 to remind them to monitor any ash trees within their school grounds for signs of decline. This is important to ensure the safety of all school users and is best carried out between mid-June and mid-September when the trees are in full leaf. Please look at our updated ash dieback addendum to ensure you are confident in identifying ash trees and assessing their condition. Please pass this on to your colleagues, especially caretakers or grounds staff, who may be most familiar with your school grounds.
Please note there is funding available to assist with tree works that may be required to deal with ash trees that have unfortunately succumbed to the disease.
Should you have any concerns regarding ash trees at your school, do contact us and we will be happy to help.
