SSE community Volunteers – Be the Difference
Many thanks to all the staff from SSE who worked in the Sensory Garden with our Parent Ground Force Team.
This was part of a great initiative where thanks to the community volunteering project, Be the Difference, employees have the opportunity to take a day out of their typical working life to support local community projects. We were able ‘borrow’ a team of hands, minds, ideas and skills completely free of charge to give our Sensory garden a bit of a makeover!
