At Sharon Hosegood Associates, trees are fundamental to successful development. We guide projects from feasibility through to construction with rigorous technical expertise, deep policy insight and practical innovation, delivering schemes that are robust, future focused and create positive outcomes for people, place and planet.
Expert advice on tree related planning matters, including constraints analysis and protection strategies during design iterations and during construction.
Sharon Durdant-Hollamby provides training for local authorities and consultant groups and is a regular speaker home and abroad.
We provide strategic, early stage guidance on trees in relation to land use change, including BS 5837 surveys, CAVAT amenity valuations, Arboricultural Impact Assessments, Arboricultural Method Statements and site supervision.
We advise on protected trees, planning conditions and appeals, navigating the interface between arboriculture, design and policy with clarity and precision.
We are independent professional advisers, not advocates for predetermined outcomes. Our role is to guide projects towards solutions that are technically robust, policy compliant and capable of successful delivery on site. We work with you to create developments that leave a positive, enduring legacy.
Expect rigorous analysis, practical innovation and clear, direct advice you can rely on.
