We are dedicated to making sure our parks and open spaces are welcoming, accessible to the community, environmentally-friendly and biodiverse.
To do this our grounds maintenance team works hard to maintain and protect the environment that our communities use.
Their efforts have been recognised by Keep Britain Tidy, which has previously awarded Bournville’s Village Green Green Flag status.
Services that grounds maintenance team provide include:
- Grass cutting
- Hedge trimming
- Shrub bed pruning and maintenance
- Weed spraying
- Tree work
- Emptying litter bins and litter picking
- Leaf clearing.
This service is funded through a charge that you pay and is part of our estate stewardship services.
