CLIENTS' GUIDE We work for clients across the public, private and voluntary sectors,
including local authorities, farmers and other landowners, local schools, public
utilities, hospital trusts and voluntary organisations such as the National
Trust. The following points should be of assistance to those interested in
making use of our services: We visit potential sites and discuss possible
options with landowners, clients and a nominated contact
We provide an estimation of the costs and a
recommended programme of work for clients to consider
Our service is not free since we have to meet the cost of materials together with necessary running expenses of the group
We encourage both long-term commitment and
participation by those who make use of our services. This is particularly the case with continuing site maintenance. A one-off
job, with no future maintenance commitment is rarely successful. We find it useful to build in
a maintenance agreement with our work
We hold full public liability cover
We generally undertake to provide all the
necessary transport, tools, training and supervision.
