An Arboretum Committee, which is a sub-committee of the User Group, has been set up to oversee the planning and re-instatement of the Arboretum. To ensure good communication beween the various involved organisations, the members come from Forestry Commission Scotland, the Perth & Kinross Countryside Trust (along with the Big Tree Country), the Perth & Kinross Council Countryside Rangers Service, the Perthshire Society of Natural Science and the Kinnoull Hill Users Group. 

Dennis Dick, who was until recently the Chair of the Scottish Wildlife Trust, has been nominated as the Chair of this new group

However, the Arboretum is a local community project and is entirely funded by donations. If you feel you can help with a donation or provide some service or equipment free to help set up the arboretum please get in touch with Dennis Dick.
