Projects From the Heart
Do you have a playground or landscaping project in mind, but don’t have the resources required to start the process?
We understand professional landscape architectural design and project management services can be prohibitive for some community based organisations, particularly schools and child-care centres.
Every year, ULP takes on a special Pro Bono Project. We offer a full Design, Documentation and Project Management service free of Charge to an Institution in need.
