Irish Trees – Our Team

Irish Trees is led by Bob Hamilton and John Doran, supported by a growing team bringing together expertise in ecology, zoology, botany and nature science, alongside graduate specialists, interns and researchers.

Working across The Lakeside Woodland near Naul and within the remarkable rewilding landscape at Dunsany Estate, the team combines practical restoration on the ground with science, monitoring and a deep understanding of the landscapes we work within.

We don't just plant trees. We help restore the ecosystems around them — creating more space for nature to recover and thrive.
