MSSL are proud to work provide Volunteer Works at Milestone Academy as a way of giving back to the local community.
Milestone Academy, a school dedicated to supporting students aged 3–19 with special educational needs, was transformed through the dedication and generosity of More Site Services Ltd. Their team played a pivotal role in revitalising key areas of the school, creating safe, engaging, and inclusive spaces that promote learning, well-being, and sustainability
MSSL contributions included Revamping the allotment and sensory garden, Restoring classroom facilities, including the treatment of wooden exteriors, installation of anti-climb fencing, and replacement of handrails.
Breathing new life into Eileen’s Garden, a cherished space named after the former principal. Through roof repairs, painting, planting, and the addition of creative elements like a chalkboard, the area was transformed into a vibrant, welcoming hub for students and staff alike.
The project was not only about physical improvements—it was a celebration of community. More Site Services Ltd brought together a diverse workforce, fostering collaboration and shared purpose. Their efforts addressed environmental, educational, and social dimensions of sustainability, leaving a legacy that will benefit generations of students
We always have a professional approach and aim to keep the same workers in each job so clints feel comfortable whilst working there. Staff are also consulted about their experience as our key objectives include excellent customer service.

Client Feedback
More Site Services Ltd (MSSL) supported VINCI to deliver a very successful Stand out Make a Difference (SOMAD) at Milestone Academy School for children with learning difficulties.
There were around 6 different areas of the school being worked on these included:
- The introduction of a handrail to prevent trips and falls.
- The re-vamp of a sensory garden.
- Repair/replacement of raised beds in the allotment area.
- Painting/preserving the exterior of a classroom to extend it’s life.
- The re-vamp of an old Chelsea Flower show garden donation.
- Installation of Anti-climb fencing.
Their commitment in joining the VINCI team and others on this project was nothing less than inspirational, they worked collaboratively with all involved to assess the schools requirements and facilitated where necessary to make positive change achievable.
Nothing was too much trouble, when I suggested building a Bug Hotel, they jumped at the chase of being able to increase student awareness and encourage biodiversity.
They provided various labour types to enable a tight deadline and even managed to negotiate material donations through local suppliers.
The teamwork was above a beyond, their enthusiasm was commendable and overwhelming. They truly live the VINCI Values.
Thank you so much for all your help, I’m super proud of you.
