Environment Times is raising money for the homeless this winter by creating a 'virtual ecohouse'. Marshalls is one of the donors. They write: Bioverse Permeable Paving System makes a great occasional car parking area or pathway, whilst retaining the environmental benefit of a decorative grassed area.

Bioverse Grass seed is available from Rigby Taylor which will improve structural strength and load bearing on the product.
