Lisa Baynton, one of the Kaplan Altior volunteers sums up the brilliant time had by all on Give and Gain Day 2010 at Tredegarville School.
I had a great day on Friday’s Give & Gain – and having had the weekend to recover, I am delighted to learn this morning that both the volunteer team at Kaplan altior, and the team at Morgan Sindall all had an equally brilliant time and felt just as fulfilled by the end of Friday.
It’s worth mentioning just how much of a difference this kind of project makes to the community – the staff at Tredegarville School were so happy about the work we did that it was immensely satisfying to finish up on time, to a high standard and to exceed their expectations for the work we completed. Without the volunteer day, the staff explained that they wouldn’t have been able to find the time or the budget to improve the playground.
Being able to contribute to projects which need a little bit of extra help in this way is invaluable and it is so encouraging to know that all the volunteers had such a fun day, and that the school was pleased with the work we completed.
So, Give & Gain Day 2010 is done and dusted. A great day was had by all, and all the projects set for us were successfully completed within the day. Check out the photos below and look out for more follow ups later today!
We will be taking part in Give & Gain Day on 9th July 2010 at a local primary school. Give & Gain is the UK’s largest day of action for employee volunteers, arranged by Business in the Community and sponsored by Eversheds.
We will be working on a selection of projects in an outdoor learning environment at a school in the Adamsdown area of Cardiff – look out for reports and photos once we have recovered from all our hard work!
2010 is the International Year of Biodiversity. An offical year long effort, declared by the United Nations, 2010 will see countries all over the world running events, workshops, lectures, projects and research – all relating to biodiversity.
