Capital One are regular visitors to help out at the farm, so they knew to come prepared for manure moving! We had a number of groups from Capital one recently, all given plenty of tasks to do. All of their skills were tested and they always worked well as a team.
Deceim

Capital One
Deceim were given a variety of different tasks and they enthusiastically got stuck in with them all. They moved manure, picked apples and even assembled some flat pack furniture for us, what more could you want.
BPP
Capital One
London Stock Exchange
The team from BPP certainly enjoyed their day out of the office. We asked them to fit new rubber safety flooring around the play park roundabout. That doesn't seem like the most exciting job, however that means they also get to test their handiwork! After multiple testing we can confirm that the park area is safer for our visitors.

What's the first thing you think of when you hear London Stock Exchange? A small farm in Nottingham city centre of course! The were tasked with weeding, painting and a spot of cleaning. The weather was very British however the team smiled throughout and enjoyed their day!
NTU

We have had loads of groups from NTU come to do TVDs over the past few months. They're always an excellent bunch who get stuck in with any task we give them. We look forward to seeing you again in the future.
United Living

Another classic British summer's day for United Living but the rain didn't dampen their spirits. They did an excellent job clearing all areas of the farm and improving the site to develop future projects.

I imagine if Wilmott Dixon never see a paint brush again they will be happy! We set them to work painting the huge doors outside our education room, with all the nooks and crannies they did an amazing job at keeping motivated.
Eversheds
Nottingham Clinical Trials

Many TVDs helped build it but Eversheds were the ones to finally finish the fencing in the big paddock! Once they had finished that they were tasked with clearing things: from general rubbish to various green things, they did an excellent job.

We got this team from M&S to do all the important tasks, essentially building things and demolishing other things. They helped further build the fences in the paddocks and carried on removing the front wall. Great work team!

This team from UL Solutions got stuck in straight away and happily completed all the different tasks we threw at them. They did some cleaning, sorting and of course some painting. It wouldn't be a TVD at Stonebridge without a bit of painting.

Kontoor Brands teams supported the farm to prepare the front wall by scraping off all the loose brickwork and paint the front walls a beautiful bright green on the tops and freshened up the cream wall. In addition, they painted the front doors to the main building which all in all has made a wonderful difference to the first impression that the farm gives to our visitors.

The team from Equifax were given one task, fencing! They helped rearrange the fencing in the paddocks which will now allow us to separate the animals with little disruption. This was additionally helpful when we were introducing our new lambs to the rest of the animals.
