Liv Piddington

I'm leading sustainability initiatives at ARU Writtle Student Union, delivering waste reduction, biodiversity enhancement, student engagement, and Environmental Impact Assessments for campus projects.

At The Abbey, I manage estate-wide grounds through ecological planting, soil-health practices, and low-input fruit and vegetable production. I use pruning, propagation, crop rotation, and seasonal maintenance to support biodiversity and climate-resilient planting.

Previously at Two Oaks Landscapes, I delivered sustainable planting schemes for residential and commercial sites, applying horticultural knowledge to turf care, soil management, and hard landscaping.

Alongside my BSc (Hons) in Horticulture, I've led teams of 50 cadets with RAF Air Cadets and supported wellbeing initiatives through nature-based practices. I'm motivated by practical environmental stewardship, sustainable land management, and helping others engage with sustainability.
