Now Ian Williams, a national property services company which works in the education sector as well as with public and private sector clients, has donated play equipment, including a wobbly tyre bridge, swinging log crossing and hammock net.

Mike Turner, of Ian Williams, said: "St Mary's is located close to our head office. When we heard about the fire and the devastating impact it had on the school and the young children we wanted to find a way to help.

"We decided that we would be able to help create a new adventure trail for the school."

Jackie Berry, school business manager at St Mary's, said: "The children have been excited about getting their play area back. We can't thank Ian Williams enough for their generosity."
