Pro Arb Magazine will be an official media partner for the upcoming Land-based and Environment Learner (LBEL) of the Year Awards.    

The LBEL Awards is a prestigious event, that is a collaboration between Lantra and Landex, celebrating the exceptional talent, dedication, and achievements of learners across the land-based and environment sectors.  

Hosted at the National Conference Centre in Birmingham, the awards ceremony will take place on 21 November.  

The 2024 LBEL Awards has seen more than 190 learners nominated, with many students and apprentices nominated across the land-based and environment sector. 

Marcus Potter, CEO of Lantra, says: “Pro Arb Magazine’s involvement with the LBEL Awards this year is a great addition to the programme.

"Their expertise and coverage of the arboriculture and forestry sector will bring invaluable visibility to the incredible talent the awards programme recognises.”

Alex Payne, CEO of Landex says: "Having Pro Arb Magazine as an official media partner for the LBEL Awards this year is fantastic.

"The magazine continuously supports and champions the forestry and arboriculture sector, so it is invaluable to have their support for our talent recognition programme.”

The awards aim to highlight the crucial contributions of learners who are shaping the future of their respective industries, including forestry and arboriculture.  

By partnering with the LBEL Awards, Pro Arb Magazine is reaffirming its commitment to supporting the next generation of professionals in the arboriculture industry, and wider land-based sector.   

Rachel Gordon, editor of Pro Arb, adds: “We’re thrilled to be a media partner for the LBEL Awards.  

“Pro Arb celebrates the very best of the arboriculture industry, and these awards recognise those who are well on their way to becoming exactly that, something which we’re honoured to support. Good luck to all the nominees!”  

The awards aim to bring together employers, land-based colleges, industry leaders, and rising stars of the land-based and environment sectors in an evening of celebration.
