“The apprenticeship with Jacq and Will Landscapes was the perfect choice for me. Being able to receive training at Writtle once a week while also receiving expert on site training four days a week was brilliant.
The staff at Jacq and Wills Landscapes all have great knowledge of the various crafts that pull together to make a garden. They have all been very supportive throughout my apprenticeship. The breadth of opportunities that taking this course with the company have given me have been irreplaceable, and there is nothing more rewarding than being able to take part in the creation of such amazing gardens.”
