Connick Tree Care Wins Arboriculture Company Award

Winner of the 2025 Pro Landscaper Arboriculture Company Award

At Connick Tree Care, we’ve always believed that great arboriculture is about more than tree work alone. It’s about people, professionalism, responsibility, and doing the right thing consistently, year after year.

That’s why we’re incredibly proud to have been recognised as the winner of the Arboriculture Company category at the 2025 Pro Landscaper Business Awards.

For over 40 years, we’ve worked hard to build a company that clients trust, employees are proud to be part of, and the wider industry respects. Winning this award is a reflection of the standards we hold ourselves to every day and the dedication of the entire Connick Tree Care team.

Built on Quality, Trust, and Consistency

From the beginning, our approach has been straightforward. We only take on work we know we can deliver exceptionally well.

That measured growth has helped us maintain the quality and reliability our clients expect, whether we’re working with local authorities, housing associations, commercial estates, heritage sites, or residential customers across the South East.

Reliability is not something we simply talk about. It’s reflected in the long-standing relationships we’ve built over decades and the confidence clients place in our teams every day.

Our commitment to professionalism, transparency, and customer care continues to shape every aspect of the business.

Investing in Our People

Our people are at the heart of everything we do.

As an employee-owned business, every member of the team has a genuine stake in our success. Since transitioning to an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) in 2024, we’ve strengthened the collaborative and supportive culture that has always defined Connick Tree Care.

We believe investing in training, progression, and wellbeing is essential to delivering outstanding arboricultural services. From technical qualifications and professional development to mental health support and mentoring, we are committed to helping our employees build long-term careers within the industry.

That investment creates highly skilled teams who take pride in their work, understand their value, and consistently deliver excellent results for our clients.

Environmental Responsibility Matters

As arboricultural specialists, we recognise the responsibility we have to protect and improve the environment through the way we operate.

Environmental responsibility is embedded into our decision-making, from recycling arboricultural waste through local biomass networks to introducing electric vehicles into our fleet and maintaining robust biosecurity measures.

Our environmental commitments are supported by our ISO 14001 accredited management system and practical actions across the business, including producing renewable biomass fuel, supplying logs and mulch for reuse, and surveying sites for protected species before work begins.

We continue to evolve responsibly, adopting new technologies and refining operations carefully and with purpose, always focused on improving service while reducing environmental impact.

Leadership with Purpose

This award also marks an important chapter in the company’s history.

Following the transition of leadership from founder Mike Connick to Managing Director Dan Pennington, Connick Tree Care continues to build on decades of expertise while embracing innovation and sustainable growth.

Dan’s practical experience, deep industry knowledge, and clear leadership continue to shape the company as we invest in technology, sustainability, and the next generation of arborists.

Looking Ahead

Winning the Pro Landscaper Arboriculture Company Award is a huge achievement for everyone at Connick Tree Care, but it doesn’t change who we are.

We remain focused on delivering the highest standards of tree care, supporting our employees, investing in sustainability, and building lasting relationships with our clients and communities.

This recognition reflects the culture we’ve built over many years: authentic, hardworking, professional, and committed to excellence in everything we do.

We’d like to thank our clients, partners, suppliers, and employees for the trust and support that have helped make this possible.
