Today is International Women's Day!
To celebrate, we reached out to UK-based writer Becky Hemsley (@talking2wild) and we're delighted to share a personalised video of her reading her poem, Breathe. It's dedicated to all women working with trees.

Following @DefraGovUK statement that just 14% of England’s #tree planting target has been met in 20/21, what needs to change to meet the 30,000ha p.a. target by 2024 and #netzero by 2050? Is ETAP/EWCO enough, or should more be done? Share your thoughts below. #treeprofessionals
