It is worth sharing the wonderful transformation that has been made to our garden since PHS have installed their MATTA safety matting for our nursery children. The garden is not only more appealing to the eye, but it provides a safety element which is of prime importance to us

Before the safety matting, the front part of our garden was covered with bark chips. Whilst this was a very practical and cheap option, it became very expensive as we were having to top up the bark chips every couple of months. Also, at certain times of the year particularly when it was raining, the area became a mudslide and too treacherous for the children to play.

The safety matting has truly enhanced the overall experience for the children. It's sparked their imagination and creativity and they playing hopscotch, having a picnic or simply sitting in groups - on the matting and listening to stories read by nursery Staff!

And let's not forget about the parents' peace of mind. Knowing that their precious ones are playing on a secure surface gives them confidence and reassurance.

Matta safety matting has been a game-changer. Its livened up our nursery garden, created a space that is more inviting, opportunities for fun and most importantly, safer for our little ones to enjoy. Thank you to PHS and the team that have made this possible……
