Mr Tim Anderson, Chairman, Maryon Park Community Garden
Jul 13, 2016 Report
The lads finished the shelter classroom in our Forest School today. Thank you for enabling us to complete this project on time! We have informed Parks and Open Spaces that we are very happy with the work - your company has done a really good job, and you and your team were a pleasure to work with from the moment we first met you. The lads on site worked really hard in very cold conditions and give us some extra help on site. We would have no hesitation in recommending Setter Play Ltd.

From start to finish it was a pleasure to do buisness with Setter. we are all, especially the children, delighted with our new outdoor classroom. The construction crew were exceptional. They worked so hard is unbelievably horrendous weather, far from home and were never seen without a smile!
