Client Testimonials

The process with Evogreen was well organised, communication with the school was consistent and timely, and each stage of the process was explained, made clear and delivered on time. They are an efficient organisation
that is very customer facing.” – Rachel Welch – Headteacher

“As a school we are always looking to grow and develop, and ideally to do so in a way that is kind to the environment. Evogreen gave us as a school a way to meet both of these objectives, in a way that was also financially viable.” – Mike Webb – Chair of Governors

“Encouraging the use of renewable energy sources that is not harmful to the environment is the way forward. The installation of the solar panels at school will also help increase the children’s awareness of alternative energy sources and the importance of caring for our planet. Hopefully in the future the panels will also save the school money on electricity bills and free up more of the budget to spend on other important educational resources for the children’..” – Mrs Appleton – Eco-Committee Leader
