What makes us special?
- We are 100% employee-owned – which means we are all partners, we all have a meaningful voice, and we own our future - (this includes sharing profits too, totally tax-free).
- ‘Number 1’ - we have earned the top spot in the prestigious Nursery World league tables for our Ofsted outcomes, all thanks to our extraordinary colleagues.
- Record-breaking Green Flag achievements, and climate-positive status - we save more CO2 than we create (take that, climate change!).
- Planting in excess of 2,000 trees in the Eden Restoration project - because the planet needs a hug too.
- Over £3.5 million raised for charity – we’re basically fundraising superheroes (without the capes).
