A DEDICATED team of young people have completed a project in Highbridge.

The Prince's Trust team run by Bridgwater and Taunton College decorated Morland Hall as part of a project.

It was supported by Homes in Sedgemoor who donated £500 and also supplied transport for the duration of the project.

This project was part of The Prince’s Trust team programme, 12 week self-development designed to help young people not in education or training to build up their confidence, motivation, employability and team work skills, while also working towards a level one qualification.

A residential trip, a community project, work experience, a team challenge and a final presentation are all part of the project.

Morland Hall was chosen after comparing potential projects in and around Bridgwater.

The team felt Morland Hall and the vast amount of groups in the community that use it would benefit from their hard work more than other sites visited.

Companies around the area supplied 24 tins of paint, two paint trays and two sets of brushes.

The group also held a car wash at the Bridgwater & Taunton College’s Cannington Centre and raised £42.

It took the group eight days on site to finish the work, decorating four bathrooms and the main hall.

In the learning disabilities room they designed and painted lots of underwater themed creatures, plus Winnie the Pooh.

A spokesperson for Homes in Sedgemoor said: "The artwork was amazing, with great attention to detail.

"In the main hall they designed and painted a woodland and animal themed mural.

"Their communication and team work improved throughout the project and they persevered when the painting become repetitive.

"Thank you to them all – Natasha Dyer, Morgan Cox, Ashleigh Heslop, Chloe Turner, Freddie Thomas, Tazmin West, Sarah Warr and Jasmine Sanders."
