A GLOVE firm is set to supply tree surgery and forestry students at Otley College with a year’s worth of its products for free.

Woodbridge firm Cutter, which was set up last year by tree surgeon Paul King and businessman Simon Masters, formed the partnership after Mr King contacted Otley’s arboriculture co-ordinator Tom Brown about courses.

Tom Brown, said: “This is great news for Otley and we are delighted with this gesture from Cutter.

“The gloves will be used during practical lessons and are a real bonus for our students.”
