TIM CHAMBERLAIN

I am passionate about connecting people with nature and tree climbing is an inspiring way to explore our environment. As a Tree Safety Expert I provide safety critical cover for organisations, film and tv.

Recent tree climbing expeditions have been to the cloud forests of Costa Rica and Honduras, to the towering redwood trees of California and also include research on rare raptors in the UK.
