We believe in the importance of quality design that connects with the needs of communities. Groundwork leads the way in providing landscape solutions that put people first.
Our work focuses on improving the quality of life in areas of greatest need and is underpinned by principles of sustainability, biodiversity and quality.
How we work
We take a joined up approach with landscape architects working closely with community project officers, youth workers and education workers and contractors. We make sure community and client are fully involved with each stage of the design.
For an example of our work check out our case study on Aaina Womens centre.
