Soil Donation to West Moors Middle School
West Moors is a Middle School with approximately 300 pupils aged 9 – 13. We thought it was great when we heard that they were looking to convert part of the School to make a Resourced Provision for up to 10 children with Complex Communications Needs or Autism. This offers children a chance to participate in Eco Club which is an after school club on a Wednesday that shows children how to grow fruit, vegetables and different plants.
As part of this project, this involved the School digging up their border of shrubs as they interfered with their drainage and they’d also had flooding due to this. Fortunately, West Moors have a number of military families at the school who had managed to arrange for the local Army to build some raised beds. This is where we came in…
We donated and delivered 6 Bulk Bags of our high quality 10mm Wessex Soil. Because this blend is 80% local British Standard topsoil and 20% PAS green compost, it is perfect for laying fresh turf and seeding.
The School are now able to start planting all sorts of different fruits, vegetables and flowers!
We supply a range of soil, compost and turf dressing, and can even create bespoke blends for your requirements!
