Key workers are people who will keep the fabric of the country running during the current lockdown, medical staff, emergency staff, police, postal workers, delivery drivers etc. (Apologies to anyone missed out!)

Client Testimonials

Jeffords were awesome! Nothing was too much trouble. I talked through what I needed for my yard (which is a very hard working space, used for storing bikes, as a diy workshop and ‘ahem’ dog toilet). I got the benefit of their garden expertise (and a planting plan) but worked with them on the design,…
