Ken
White from Frosts Landscapes has stepped down as Chair of the Association of
Professional Landscapers (APL).
Vice
Chair Rod Winrow, from Garden House Design, is taking on the role of Chair with
David Sewell from the Garden Makers assuming the position of Vice Chair, until
the November AGM where they will stand for re-election.
Ken
has made the decision to step down from the Chairman’s role as work commitments
have prevented him from giving the time and attention that he wished to give to
the APL.
Ken
comments: “I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as Chairman and wish the APL
Committee and its members continued success.”
APL
General Manager, Phil Tremayne, adds: “Ken’s dedication to the APL as a
Committee member, and particularly as its Chairman, has been instrumental in
the direction that the organisation has taken over the past couple of years.
"Ken’s
business acumen enabled the APL to define a clear 3 year strategy which has
started to deliver significant benefits to membership.
“The
creation of both the Business Development Programme and ‘Ted Talk Style’
seminars were both initiatives that Ken pushed forward. I would like to
personally thank Ken for his commitment to APL and it has been a pleasure
working with him.”
