Here at Springfield School we are very pleased with the willow dome created for us. The children are very happy with the dome and use it regularly. I can wholeheartedly recommend Root and Branch’s services and we are very pleased with the results.

Thank you so much. I had a wonderful time and gained so much knowledge. Maria Blann, Chase Bridge School, Richmond [on willow workshop at Shepperton]
My name is Louise Shapley and I teach at Heatherside Junior School in Fleet. In January this year I took part in your willow training day at Shepperton and was very impressed with your work. Louise Shapley, Teacher
I have been on a willow course before, but came away from that one feeling I had spent quite a lot of money, but achieved very little. Your course, however, was completely different. The attention to detail was excellent, and I felt really confident when I left about what I could achieve. You are both excellent teachers, and I congratulate you both. Malcolm Robertson, workshop participant
