I have a large 12ft tall laurel hedge that I need to top.

Its to big for steps, infact it would be too wide for me to reach into
the middle.

Its to wide and bushy to put a ladder up it

Some advice please.

TIA
You could try the trick of tying a plank to the top of a ladder so that it
rests on the hedge and spreads the weight and stops the ladder falling into
the hedge.
