Redrow South West gives The Manor CofE Primary School a glow

he Manor CofE Primary School has received 30 high-visibility jackets from Redrow South West, as part of their Community Fund initiative

If you see a group of bright yellow children walking around Frenchay Park, don't be alarmed.

They are the pupils of The Manor CofE Primary School, who have received a generous donation of high visibility jackets from Redrow South West.

The developer is currently building at Frenchay Park, on Frenchay Park Road, and has donated 30 jackets as part of its Community Fund initiative.

The fund, which was launched earlier this year, provides organisations with donations to help them thrive, with local causes encouraged to apply for their share of a £10,000 pot.

In recent years, conversations surrounding safety culture in schools have only continued to grow, with high-visibility jackets helping with safety when outside of the school grounds.

Jessica Hughes, a teacher at The Manor CofE Primary School, said: “We’re incredibly grateful to receive Redrow South West’s donation. Something as simple as a high-visibility jacket has such a huge impact on a child’s safety.

“We can’t wait to put the jackets to use during school trips in the near future.”

Sian Smith, sales director at Redrow South West, said: “We are delighted to have donated much-needed high visibility jackets to The Manor CofE Primary School.

“We are committed to building thriving communities within the local area and are proud to support the school in its commitment to safety. Our donation ensures children can continue to explore and participate in various outdoor activities within the community without any additional worries regarding their visibility.

“We love seeing the pictures of the children sporting their new jackets, we’re looking forward to hearing of their latest outdoor adventures.”
