WE HELPED spread the news of CALA Homes recent foray into gardening and we won’t beat around the bush when we say our results were blooming marvelous. 

Our client CALA Homes (East) was quick to get involved in National Gardening Week this year, donating gardening equipment and accessories to schools around Edinburgh in order to continue its work providing tangible benefits to local communities.

Pupils at Little Hawthorn Nursery in Loanhead, North Berwick Nursery School, Woodlands Special School in Currie and St Margaret’s Primary School in South Queensferry were all provided with gardening tools. The packs donated included spades, trowels, rakes, watering cans and gloves, the as well as an insect sculpture hotel and seeds to encourage wildlife into the school gardens.
