Customer comments:

Thanks to all of you  –  you’ve done a remarkable job and must be absolutely exhausted. DP

“Thank you Upcycling.  We love it! We now have a beautiful stone patio, a flawless lawn and we can’t wait to get some plants in the new raised bed and greenhouse. So pleased!”. 

Within the team are a combination of paid staff and volunteers.

Paul S is our longest serving gardener, and has life long experience of gardens, having a particular love of flowers.

“Paul’s done a lovely job on my bank and path.  Thumbs up. “

Paul’s experience allows him to guide and direct younger, less experienced staff safely and with confidence.

Mervyn is another employee on our gardening team.  Mervyn works extremely hard and has a great understanding of using the strimmers, movers and hedge cutters to achieve a high standard.  Mervyn’s real passion in life is animals, and he is keen to protect both pets and wildlife from harm.

Philip is a volunteer with the Project.  He started a placement with us through National Star College and loved it so much he never left!  He is a hard worker and always aims to please.  Will never say no to a cup of tea!

Paul D is the newest member of the gardening team.  An experienced gardener, Paul is loving his new career with us, and we love having him.  Always smiling and the first to volunteer to give a helping hand.
