of landscape architecture is one of the most important things I and colleagues within the profession can do because there are too few landscape architecture graduates coming into the workplace.\u00a0 People only find out about landscape architecture by chance and we at terra firma are making efforts to spread the word by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Getting involved in career fairs at local schools \u2013 at terra firma we have a policy that every member of the team attends at least one event per year;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Writing to careers officers at local and county levels;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We are currently linking with other practices in our region to develop a co-ordinated approach to reaching out to potential future landscape architects in schools and colleges;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Talking at assemblies \/ clubs at our local schools;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Becoming STEM Ambassadors.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This postcard was designed to be handed out by landscape architecture lecturers at the University of Gloucestershire.\u00a0 It describes succinctly and engagingly what the opportunities are within landscape architecture and leads people directly to the relevant university to find out more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"492\" height=\"752\"
