Tim Wills, Cornish Hedger

Tim Wills, from Devon, served for five years in the police before realising that his interest lay in craftsmanship and the outdoors. Following receiving his bursary, Tim has trained in the endangered craft of Cornish hedging with the Cornish Rural Education and Skills Trust. He plans to set up his own business and to continue to support local charities to keep these skills alive.

Tim’s bursary was funded by the D’Oyly Carte Charitable Trust.
