For almost 50 years, we have made our social value a priority and continuously looked for ways we can further improve and develop our work.

Community Recycle Scheme
Launched during the Covid-19 pandemic, we were a founder of the national Community Recycle Scheme which donates a range of outdoor equipment to schools across the UK. Since 2020, over £16,000 worth of items have been donated to over 50 schools. This includes a range of shade sails, fencing, benches and post pad protectors.
The scheme is still live and so far we have been able to donate to a further 15 schools in 2024. If you are interested in requesting an item, please click here to visit the site.
Grants for Schools
For over five years we have been regularly publishing and updating our comprehensive grants guide for schools. This is updated by our research team, who search and source grant opportunities open to schools within the UK. After working with schools for almost 50 years, our team are aware of the financial difficulties many have been facing so it was important to us to help raise awareness of possible funding streams. The latest version of our Grants Guide, can be downloaded here.
Charity Work
As well as regularly donating to charities nominated by our team, we also actively seek ways of raising additional funds. Earlier in 2024 four members of the team took part in Cancer Research’s Tough Mudder run, raising over £1,000 for this vital charity.
