We are delighted to welcome the Charlton Abbotts forestry team to Nicholsons.

We’re thrilled to announce an exciting new chapter for Nicholsons as we integrate Charlton Abbotts Forestry into our forestry department. This strategic partnership expands our forestry and arboricultural services across a wider area, now encompassing Oxfordshire, Northamptonshire, Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Wiltshire, Somerset and surrounding counties.

Nicholsons and Charlton Abbotts Forestry share a foundation built on family principles, environmental stewardship and a commitment to quality. This partnership reflects our shared dedication to sustainable practices, community connection and respect for the natural landscape. Together, we are poised to deliver enhanced services supported by a culture of reliability and responsibility to our clients and the land.

As Charlton Abbotts founders, Will and Sue Wilkinson, look to the future, they have entrusted their company to Nicholsons, seeing us as a natural fit to carry forward their legacy. With over 110 years of combined experience, the Charlton Abbotts team brings immense knowledge and expertise, strengthening our ability to offer innovative forest management strategies that support biodiversity, Continuous Cover Forestry and natural capital markets.

Niel Nicholson, founding director of the Forest Canopy Foundation, warmly welcomes the Charlton Abbotts team, saying, “We’re honoured to bring Charlton Abbotts into the Nicholsons family. Their deep expertise and focus on client-centred forest management aligns perfectly with our mission.”

We’re also pleased to share a message from Will and Sue: “Joining Nicholsons ensures our commitment to client service continues to thrive, and we’re confident in the team’s dedication to future-proofing our woodland management.”

Head of Forestry, Arboriculture & Ecology Justin Mumford adds, “With Charlton Abbotts as part of the team, we can achieve a seamless, ‘bigger, better, together’ service, applying advanced techniques with an environmentally conscious approach. This partnership is a meaningful step toward securing the future of forestry in our region.”

Thank you for being a valued part of our journey. We’re excited about the opportunities this partnership will bring and look forward to serving you with an even stronger, unified team.
