LSH Credit and LSH Property Support Local Green Spaces – UK CSR Day

The LSH Credit and LSH Property teams in the UK were delighted to join forces in a CSR event at the Heaton Mersey Vale orchard, which was a leafy 10-minute walk from our office in Stockport. Also in attendance was the Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Manchester, Kui Man-Gerry Yeung OBE.

The team started by clearing overgrown grass and weeds from around the fruit trees and then covered the soil with mulch, which is a mix of bark and compost, and provides nutrients to the soil, weed suppression, and moisture retention.

We also cut back encroaching vegetation to open a safe play and exploration zone for local primary school children. This will allow youngsters to learn about native plants and insects in a well-maintained environment.

Despite the summer heatwave, our combined efforts made a visible difference: tree bases are tidy, pathways are clear, and future orchard visitors will benefit from healthier soil and safer spaces.

We’re already looking forward to returning later in the year to plant new saplings and refresh mulch. It’s fantastic to see a simple CSR day translate into real, lasting benefits for both our team and the community.
