Pupils at a Coventry primary school have been learning about construction from Mansell staff who are working on a nearby housing project.

The Stourbridge-based Western region of Mansell organised a painting competition for pupils at Edgwick Community Primary School in Foleshill. The school is close to Ribbon Court where Mansell is building a housing complex for Ashram Housing Association including 50 self-contained apartments and a range of facilities for the over 65s.

The youngsters were asked to paint a picture of what they thought the final building would look like. The paintings were judged by Mansell site manager Joe Sutton, Mansell tenant liaison officer Natasha Smith and Ashram's head of health and social care, Jean Tompkins. Winners were presented with book tokens donated by Mansell.
