The Celtic Manor has been an innovator since its creation but this summer sees a major new development: the ‘sport of kings’ comes to the world renowned resort. On Saturday 2nd July, players from across the United Kingdom will compete for the inaugural Polo at the Manor Trophy. We have been busy harrowing and disc seeding the new polo ground and will be marking it out for the event. The new ground has the magnificent Twenty Ten Course which hosted The 2010 Ryder Cup as a back drop. It is expected to attract many guests and spectators from around Wales, the South West of England and beyond and promises to be a wonderful social event. Elsewehere on the course we’ve been busy grass harrowing and disk seeding the driving range.

The audience of primary school children we can see in the first picture below is fascinated by the work we’re doing to transform the area round a shopping precinct for street scene, part of Bridgend Council. You can see the beginnings of the transformation in the second picture, and what huge difference well-maintained green spaces can make to how we live.
In a different context entirely, the owners of the Jane Hodge Hospice are moving heaven and earth (or at least large parts of it) to create a garden which will evoke feelings of peace, tranquillity and renewal. The materials and plants have been sourced from the best suppliers. Just look at the quality of the dressed stone slabs being unloaded for the garden in the picture below.
