A Lichfield school is to get some green-fingered support after winning a community contest organised by a local garden centre.

Saxon Hill Academy has been selected in the Helping Your Community Grow project by Shenstone-based Dobbies.

It will mean the school – which has pupils with physical and additional needs – receives gardening resources to brighten up their green space in a sustainable way. 

There will also be support and expertise to help older students grow seeds in the school’s polytunnel.

Wendy Arnfield, community co-ordinator at Saxon Hill Academy, said:

> “We’re thrilled to have won Dobbies’ Helping Your Community Grow initiative and are looking forward to bringing our project to life.  
>  
> “We’re really grateful for everyone’s support in getting us to this point and excited for what’s to come.”
