The Taffs Well team was asked if they could help to build an eco pond for the local Gwaelod y Garth Primary School. They jumped at the chance to use their Lend a Hand day to good use.
The school has already achieved the green flag environment award and an eco pond 9 would help them towards achieving a GOLD flag award. On a very hot day in Cardiff, the Taffs team set off with their picks and shovels, sun cream and plenty of water to build a pond, in hindsight they should have taken the excavator!
The team worked really hard all day and were keen to do a good job. They have already made the local community Facebook page linking the community with the CEMEX business.
Dave Goodman commented: “Thanks to everyone who contributed on the day, it was truly a massive effort and good luck to the school in achieving the Gold award.”
