Recognition for green-fingered team

A milestone has been reached this summer in our Grounds Team. Our Apprentice, Michael Haines (pictured, right), and Trainee Aaron Presley (centre) have received a symbolic tool of the trade - a fine pair of secateurs, presented by our Grounds & Estates Manager, Richard Beale (left). Michael passed his Horticultural Level 2 qualification at Wiltshire College, Lackham and Aaron, who is also a retained firefighter, has passed training courses in chainsaw use, strimming, highways signage and excavator operations. Michael recently gave a presentation to staff and Councillors giving an overview of his study course.

Congratulations go too to fellow team member Richard Jones who passed his Horticultural Level 1 qualification.
