All in a day’s work
Sep 27, 2023Great Places resident Mrs Popat, asked Emanuel Whittaker labourer, Mason Dawick, if he could help to remove some old white goods that were left in her garden.
Mason, always the gent, removed these items for her.
Mrs Popat was vey happy, especially because Mason had also removed some other bits and bobs from her garden she no longer needed.
Well done Mason!

Easier on the eye
Sep 27, 2023Storage space is limited on Rectory Green so we’ve utilised suitable areas for storing materials, to avoid placing further storage cabins in valuable limited car parking spaces.
A couple of residents thought the fenced area looked a little unsightly, so JB roofing decided to use artificial climbing foliage to help blend the area into the surrounding gardens, so it is easier on the eye.
Well done guys!

Pots Planted
Aug 30, 2023JB Roofing’s, Matt Hollinshead, noticed all the care and attention that had gone into Rectory Green’s memorial garden over the summer months and offered up some reclaimed chimney pots from a previous job that he thought might look nice planted.
Rectory Green resident and main tender to the garden, Joan Eastwood, said that it is a wonderful idea and later that week the pots were in place, planted and looking grand.

Recycle Reuse
Aug 30, 2023With so many deliveries coming with materials for our continued work at Rectory Green, we often have pallets that need discarding.
Retired resident, Gerald Williams, asked if he could have four to use on his allotment, to construct a compost bin.
Site Manager, John Millward, arranged for Emanuel Whittaker Joiner, Mick Crossan, to drop them off at the nearby allotment, to save Gerald the trouble.
Gerald said that it was totally unexpected and greatly appreciated and will be a useful addition to his allotment.

Finishing Touches
Jul 12, 2023Some new additions had been purchased for Block 1’s memorial garden.
The Emanuel Whittaker site team assisted with, mounting hanging basket brackets, installing wire fencing along with some planting.
Rectory Green resident, Joan Eastwood, popped into the site office with fresh cream cakes and fruit the next day along with a thank you card for our help.
