North-east independent builders merchant JT Dove got an 11-year-old to design part of the landscaping display in Teesside outlet.
Following a visit to the Stockton branch by children at Norton Nursery and Kids Zone After-School Club, JT Dove set the children a challenge to design part of its landscaping display. Gabrielle Oxley was appointed senior designer of the block-paving section because her design lent itself well to being transformed into the design of the paving centre.
Branch manager Martin Jakolins said her design was also “vibrant ands well thought-out”.
“The children had such a brilliant time during their visit to the branch, we decided to run a competition,” he added.
Gabrielle was invited to JT Dove Stockton’s branch, along with runner up, eightyear- old Kyle Parkin, to see her design come to fruition.
