Community heritage project in collaboration with St. Peter’s Primary School.
The Fish & Ships Project will be an opportunity to reconnect with local history and the environment. In addition the workshops and visits will help develop a number of creative and practical skills, including net and knot making, navigation, print making and mixed media displays.
We urgently require reusable materials for the project and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
donate nowI have seen the work that Enviromate does with regard to material donations for projects and wondered if you could help.
I have a disabled son who will be 30 yrs old this May and with his conditions we all, including hospital staff, never expected him to reach this age.
To celebrate his birthday and the arrival of Spring, we are creating him a surprise sensory garden and have managed to build a fish pond for him but am trying to find scaffold boards to edge the pond with and also raise the flower borders so that he can reach them from his wheelchair.
Unfortunately we are now low on funds to complete the project in time. If Enviromate could help in any way we would be very grateful.
I have never asked for anything before but after seeing your work, I thought it would be worth speaking with you.

Enviromate Donate are proud to be supporting this fantastic Rebuilt4u Community Project in Jaywick, Essex helping re-home individuals who have found themselves in unfortunate circumstances and living on the street’s. The project begins with the regeneration of a property from reclaimed and surplus materials and the guys need your help in all forms from materials to volunteering support – take a read of the project overview below and if there is anyway you can help however small then drop us a line at hello@enviromate.co.uk to discuss;
Rebuilt4U is a registered not for profit community interest company set up with the aim to regenerate the derelict housing stock in some of the UK’s most deprived areas. We want to provide affordable housing for all. We will target our support where we know it will have the most lasting impact.
Rebuilt4U was founded by Daniel Hill. A successful entrepreneur who is a regular on TV and featured in shows such as Channel 4’s Ultimate Dealers and SuperScrimpers, BBC’s 24 Hours in the Past and most recently the hit Dave show Storage Hunters UK. This wheeler dealer will turn his hand to anything but his passion is to help others achieve.
Having a roof over our head is often taken for granted but there are many families and individuals who do not have a place to call home. Rebuilt4U want to help provide homes for those in need by renovating and building more affordable housing.
With your help we can make a difference. We are looking for volunteers who can donate a few hours of their time or expertise to help make dilapidated properties liveable again.
If your a builder, carpenter, electrician, labourer or you can donate building materials or essentials like bathrooms and kitchens then we would LOVE to hear from you.
YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
donate nowBedfords Park Walled Garden is a community-focused food growing space on the edge of London. It sits within a nature reserve and an historical setting.
The aim of the garden is to teach people about food, growing their own, giving valuable life skills to some and ‘skills for working’ to others. There are gardening clubs for the new and the experienced as well as many events, workshops and activities to enjoy whether you’re a gardener or not.
We don’t have enough storage so we’re building 2 sheds. One small one at the back of the Fern house and the other long one at the back of the pineapple house. Both these aspects are north facing and therefore no good for planting and ideal for the sheds we need. The sheds will be made from as much reclaimed and reusable material as possible.
donate nowOur project is called Food For Thought and it is a grow your own project for schools in disadvantaged areas in East Ayrshire. We are working with 2 classes within each of the 7 primary schools involved in the project. We’d like to be able to create at least 2 raised beds for each school which would mean using around 28 scaffold planks.
The raised beds would be used both for growing crops the children would plant and harvest, cook and eat and for growing plants for pollinators. Work outside would link with other work completed in the classroom promoting healthy food choices and an awareness of the role played by pollinators in food production. The schools are registered with the RHS Campaign for the School Gardening.

The project via TCV is a renovation of a community centre garden in Swinnnow, Leeds. We held a community consultation to see what locals wanted, and refined the ideas to a few key areas.
An additional path will be built up from the car park to the café seating area, surrounded by a sensory garden and information/history panels. There is a deaf and blind group who use the centre weekly, and have expressed that the current path is not suitable. The sensory garden will be popular for all, however our wish is provide a place where those with dementure can relax and enjoy their surroundings.
The path will continue past the café area and up a rise, so wide and accessible steps will be needed, along with a railing. At the top of the rise there will be raised beds and a greenhouse, so that the current gardening group can have their own space. The space with provide opportunity and incentive for thegroup to expand, and produce will be sold at a value price on site. The money made will go back into the centre.
On top of the rise there is also a shady area behind the centre building. This will be transformed into a wildlife and children’s outdoor education area, using all natural products such as live willow and mushroom seats made from felled tree trunks.
Finally the old paving slabs that provide the current path will be brought up and layed again properly, to ensure the path is even. Woven willow screens will also be fixed around the bins. The outcome should be an appealing, inviting area that’s suitable for many users. If we got even one part of this list through you we would be extremely grateful.
