We are looking for organisations who want to help their local schools. Businesses can now help their local schools by sponsoring one of our upcycled bathtub planters.
School budgets are constantly being reduced & it is becoming harder & harder for schools to fund outdoor activities.
To ease the burden on school budgets we encourage local businesses to help.
Contact us if your business is interested in becoming a sponsor for your local school.
