Ysgol Pen Coch provides education and care for pupils with learning disabilities, and Airbus were keen to support them by producing specialist wheelchair enabled planters for their forest school area.

The group, led by Ben Hughes, also created a new path area and helped to redecorate and refurbish their community and staff training area.

The Airbus team reached out for donations from other local companies for equipment including gardening tools to help the school maintain its outdoor spaces.
