Getting an insider’s look at how our Grounds & Gardens team keep our sites thriving, Amy got to see:

🔧 The construction of our planters (keep an eye out for the new flower beds near the Students’ Union soon!).

💐 The art of creating floral display pieces for events.

🎨 How the team will save and repurpose what they can (with even arts and crafts in mind!).

🌳 How timing the trimming of hedgerows on site is key - sometimes the team have to be ready at dawn!

🐱 That, most importantly, Millie () keeps a close eye on what’s going on!

Thank you for having us - we enjoyed every moment and in awe at how much work is done to maintain our biodiversity pieces. 🌸
