Salix paint the town red at Petrie Court

Dsc01935

The Morrison Salix team joined forces with their client Salix Homes to assist residents at Petrie Court re-decorate their communal lounge and rooms this October.

Petrie Court is a supported accommodation project in Lower Broughton, which  specifically supports 16 to 24 year old single homeless people. The idea of the  project was to use apprentices to teach young residents some useful basic  skills in decorating that they may need when moving into their first property.

Salix Homes is currently undertaking a number of projects to empower and  involve young people. Wolseley kindly donated the paint and Morrison the  staff, to help the project get started. Salix Homes donated brushes, overalls  and rollers for the residents to continue the project and Lynne Kenyon, manager at Petrie Court, remarked that residents were thrilled at the help and
support shown.

Well done to all the Morrison operatives who helped paint the inside of the  building for the residents.
