Testimonials
RePollinate has been instrumental in helping us achieve our goal of delivering meaningful community benefits across Scotland through delivering green space improvement projects. Their support and expertise have significantly streamlined the management of multiple projects, making the process smoother and far less stressful.
Working with RePollinate has been an absolute pleasure. Their excellent communication, organisational skills, and proactive project management have made every collaboration seamless and enjoyable.
RePollinalte’s attention to detail is second to none. They consistently deliver high-quality projects on time. From thoroughly discussing project requirements to regular check-ins, RePolinate ensures that every aspect is handled with care and professionalism, creating results we can be proud of.
RePollinate made it really easy to plan the bed for bees. They chose all the plants with us and came out to visit the site to see what we were working with. From there they purchased all the plants from a brilliant nursery so the plants were really healthy. The perennials are establishing nicely in their second season and they are all doing really well. The Bee Bed provides loads of interest in the garden and we often point it out to visitors. During peak flowering times the bed is absolutely buzzing with pollinators, it is a joy to sit and watch them!
Fortune Works as a group have loved the RePollinate bed, it has brought a real finishing touch to our pollinator corridor within FW and we love the fact they have used lots of native plants in the design. The whole process was excellent from delivery to plans attached for recommendations. Our team really enjoyed planting it up and the holistic planning of the shape of the bed. We couldn’t recommend RePollinate enough. It’s a great project doing great things.
This garden has already achieved many of the things that we hoped it would do. We have more contact with neighbours, some of whom have become really involved. We have a scouting group involved and contact with the school to start doing things in the garden. A group of young children and their carers use the space to share stories and songs and get their hands dirty. We need to renew the relationship with the nursing home as one of our volunteers has taken more of a back seat in the project. The project has also brought hope to the church community.
We were absolutely delighted with the beds designed by RePollinate for the Beds for Bees scheme. Despite having an enthusiastic group of volunteers, we had struggled to maintain our old, badly designed flowerbeds. When we had designed them, we simply had not understood enough about what we were the doing. In contrast, the new flowerbeds are so well designed that we see our efforts really pay off. They got established quickly, look fantastic and have been easy to maintain. And we are not the only ones who love them: the flowers are always covered in bees, butterflies, moths and hoverflies! We are so grateful to RePollinate. If you don’t believe us, come to Dunmore and check out our beautiful blooms!
Working with RePollinate to get a diversity of plants onto the Ibrox Commons has not only been great for attracting pollinators, but also for adding colour and texture to the space, making the garden more attractive for folk to spend time in. We are really grateful for the plants and support from Nick and the RePollinate team – they were super helpful and easy to work with. We are looking forward to seeing the beds for bees blooming again next year and beyond.
Nick has been efficient and worked to agreed deadlines and budgets; adaptable/flexible with changing plant availability; listened and been responsive to the requests made by me and the community groups; personable and good fun when helping to lay out and plant with community groups of all ages and abilities.
I wholeheartedly recommend the service that they offer.
Working with RePollinate was brilliant. Receiving all the beautiful flowers, planting them out then watching them grow and flower was lovely. It was amazing to see the bees and other insects arrive. The flowers have brightened up an area in the garden that was underused. Can’t wait to see the flowers grow and become more established over the year and produce more flowers not forgetting the loads of more busy bees to come.
Being part of the ‘Bee Beds’ project was such a delight for the senses. From placing the plants in the dirt and watching them grow, to hearing the bees buzzing and watching as the bees and butterflies danced amongst the colourful flowers and smelling they’re wonderful scents. I thoroughly enjoyed taking part in this wonderful experience and would highly recommend it to other groups around the country.
Nick contracted wonderful, hard working people to level all the ground space and provide a wheelchair accessible surface, in addition to seating and raised beds and planters for the area, with full involvement and consultation with ourselves at every stage, to ensure everything met the needs of the people who would benefit.
This whole initiative has really encouraged and motivated our service users, staff and volunteers to be open and excited about expanding our services to include enjoying the outdoors, be involved in planting and growing and planning how best to use the produce in the future, so massive personal and organisational benefits in every way, for general health, wellbeing and mental stimulation and will be a valuable asset to us all for many years to come.
