Suffolk

Consortium Trust is a family of schools and educational provisions with the fundamental aim to not only maintain but to enhance quality education at the centre of our communities across East Anglia.  Our Trust values family and community and puts these at the heart of what we do, our buildings and services are community assets and our contribution to the wider community is key to the success of our children, young people and colleagues. Consortium Trust is a growing and aspirational Trust and are proud of every part of our organisation.  While we started our journey as specialising in small rural primary schools, a core aim that we still hold, we have sustainably expanded to also include medium size suburban primary schools, private nursery provision, large special schools, an unregulated Alternative Provision offer and specialist resource bases.  Our school scouting provision at primary will soon be joined by Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme Operating status for our secondary and post-16 students, demonstrating our commitment to a broad, balanced curriculum and outdoor learning. We provide excellent support and services to our schools and settings through an effective central team based at our offices in Helmingham  that include, school improvement and curriculum development alongside, finance, HR, compliance and estates management.  As we continue to strive to deliver excellence in education we are looking for new partners to add to our diversity and strength, from the smallest primary school to secondary schools, if you are seeking a supportive, collaborative and challenging home, I would be delighted to explore the opportunities with you.

ReVamp Boutique

revamp boutique

Colchester

Described by Essex County Council as a  "A sustainable role model business!" Our story....When Sarah & Simon met in 2007, Sarah had just renovated her home and Simon had no idea what change of direction was coming his way! A few years on, after the birth of their son, they both recognised that they had more in common than just love!  Their passion for creatively ReUsing everyday items became fun and constant ReThinking anything from a shells to furniture to their most recent project an Upfurbished Lodge ReTreat in Suffolk. With Interior Design experience Sarah started to incorporate ReUsing in her schemes, recognising a “gem” that needed some ReLoving and clients started to offer her pieces to upcycle. Not long after she had her first furniture sale and commissions followed!  And so ReVamp Boutique was born! With basic carpentry skills from school Simon started to adapt some of the pieces under Sarah’s design eye and soon Simon took an interest in the upholstery side making this a formidable creative team. Sarah’s passion is to share some ReVamp secrets, and returning to her teaching experience she  gleaned at a local college, she now runs creative ReUse workshops which are not just sustainable but fun, sociable, excellent for your well being and the best gifts for family, friends and loved ones! The business has now undertaken many commissions, with Simon now an accomplished upholsterer and Sarah a furniture artist seen at Grand Designs and Westfield Stratford & London. The couple now have premises to run their workshops, take commissions and sell their statement furniture as well as their Retreat, the complete ReVamp experience, available for booking now. We would love you to get in touch to catch the infectious bug of upcycling and ReUsing with us!
