Baggeridge Brick Homes in on Leeds
Baggeridge has assisted in the development of the Fearn Island Mills project in Leeds after its Magma Red Multi bricks were chosen.
Baggeridge has donated a mix of bricks and 'specials' to construct the 3m x 4m raised flower bed which will be used by pupils aged between three and 11 years old.
Head teacher, David Cox, is grateful for Baggeridge's help as he believes encouraging pupils to take part in outdoor recreational activities, such as gardening, helps develop creativity whilst also offering significant health benefits.
He comments: "Not all pupils at the school have the opportunity to get out digging in the garden and thanks to Baggeridge, we are now able to continue helping youngsters learn valuable practical and social skills.".
