School PTA Secures Storage

Lytchett Minster School’s Parent Teacher Association (PTA) has secured some heavily discounted storage thanks to two former students.

Lucy and Sophie Maidman run Store and Secure in Hamworthy, Poole, and along with their colleague Kavan Wood made space available for their alma mater.

The PTA is a dedicated group of parents, carers and school staff working together to support the school community. Its aim is to enhance the educational experience of all students by organising events, fundraising and fostering strong relationships between families and the school.

Being so successful, the PTA has a great deal of stock for all the events it organises and runs. And now, thanks to the partnership with Store & Secure, it has somewhere to store everything.

James Merrick, from the PTA, said:

“We are so grateful to Store & Secure and to Lucy and Sophie, who have proved what generous people the school produces."

“We now have a dedicated storage unit which is safe, secure and easily accessible when we need it. We are a new PTA team in our first year and while we've already organised several successful events, including the upcoming Summer Fayre, we're still very much in the early stages of our journey."

“We're excited about building on this momentum and creating even more opportunities to support the school and its students in the years ahead - that's why the support from Lucy and Sophie means such a great deal to us."

“As parents of current students and volunteers doing our best to support the school community, having access to secure storage removes a significant challenge and allows us to focus more of our time and energy on fundraising and organising events that benefit the students.”

Kavan from the company said:

“Both of my directors attended the school and have many happy memories from their time there. The school played an important part in their upbringing, so being able to give something back feels very special."

“When I was approached about providing a storage space, there was no hesitation. I was delighted to offer a storage room to help the school and support the fantastic work it continues to do for local children and families”
