  • I learnt so much at TASK

    “I have been doing landscaping for years so was a bit sceptical at how much I would learn but I couldn’t have been more wrong!

    Rupert is so knowledgeable, he passed on his experience in a way that was easy to understand and enjoyable too. I have already put my new skills to the test across the grounds of the hospital.”

    Mark Maycroft, Grounds Person Gloucestershire Royal Hospital

  • I’d give the course 10/10

    “I’d give the course 10/10 - Rupert's passion is contagious, he went out of his way to explain anything we weren’t sure about and checked understanding before we moved on. I felt like the learning was at a really good pace and really good value for money. It was a full-on two days but I came away with so much more knowledge!”

    Testimonials
  • Gave me the confidence

    “TASK has been the perfect tool for me to transition from maintenance to landscaping. I run a garden maintenance company with two employees so I didn’t have the option to retrain with a landscaping firm. TASK, Rupert & Dave gave me the confidence to start doing landscaping jobs and now we are in the middle of our first paving job at the Bristol Botanic Gardens!”

    Testimonials

    “I massively appreciated Rupert’s experience and his willingness to answer all my questions, many of which were about other aspects of landscaping rather than the block paving I was there for - I really appreciated this!”

  • A good balance of classroom based and practical learning
