Rodney leading a session at the CCFG conference on Understanding daylight in the context of Continuous Cover Forestry, Westonbirt Arboretum, 2009.

In memory of Pro Silva founding member Rodney Helliwell (1940-2018)

Rodney was one of the original founding members of Pro Silva, a signatory of the declaration of Robanov Kot (1989), the Pro Silva founding document.

He was the first chairman of the Continuous Cover Forestry Group (CCFG) and was responsible for establishing a formal association with ProSilva.
