Tree Appeal Partner - Kent Services

PLANTING TREES FOR A GREENER FUTURE

March 31st 2009 is a highly significant date for Kent Services Limited as it marks the completion of 21 years of successful trading. To celebrate this special occasion we are delighted to have become a Corporate Partner of Tree Appeal.

To launch this association we have donated a large number of trees in the name of our customers. We have specifically chosen to support the Appeal’s ‘Trees for Schools’ initiative and all the broad leaf trees planted will be contributing to important environmental projects in 3 Primary schools:


Timberley Primary School, Birmingham
Our trees will be part of a wonderful project to create a wildlife area for the pupils contributing to the teaching of the science curriculum at the school and helping the children in their appreciation of the environment.
 
Farleigh School, Hants: Farleigh School have used their trees to supplement mature woodlands on their grounds, keeping the habitat healthy with a mixture of old and young trees. The trees have been planted adjacent to the sports field, where they will be enjoyed by the school children and local community for years to come.

Woodfall Primary School, Merseyside: The trees sponsored at this school have been planted around the perimeter of the grounds by the children themselves, as part of their Eco Club and curriculum activities. The trees will provide shade in the years to come and provide habitat for mini beast investigations. 

Kent Services has a long-held philosophy of providing economical and sustainable products and is committed to working for the long-term protection of the environment. At the heart of our business is, our Container Leasing Service, which offers ready access to museum standard containers, designed and manufactured to be re-usable, using durable materials - reducing the need for repetitive manufacture and the resultant waste of valuable resources - and reducing the requirement for new softwood and hardwood.

Becoming a corporate partner of Tree Appeal enables us to re-enforce our commitment to the environment by contributing to tree planting schemes and helping us to off set any new timber that we do use.

Going forward, future tree donations will be incorporated in to our Container Leasing Service, and will be linked directly to the quantity of containers leased by each of our customers.

Further details will be announced very soon!
