Building and Filling Planters

The team have been out around Croydon building and filling planters. Planters help turn parks, gardens and streets into welcoming communal spaces that promote a friendly environment and a thriving, outgoing community!

Croydon Parks

Our young employees have been busy cleaning up local parks. Parks and green spaces are valued by a huge number of people. As an environmental services company, our priority is keeping them clean and tidy for the wider community to enjoy.

World Cleanup Day

The team spent a day at Addington Hills, providing free gloves to #WorldCleanupDay2021 participants. The gloves were kindly given to The Skill Mill by Spontex UK. Spontex UK wanted to do something to support members of the community who were taking part in the annual event. We teamed up with them, and supported hundreds of individuals and community groups!

Our young people have all passed their Emergency First Aid at work course with St John Ambulance. This training provides basic life saving first aid skills and knowledge of workplace health and safety regulations. Our young people enjoyed taking part, and it's a great life skill for them to have! Well done to all involved.
