Housing developer Barratt and David Wilson Homes, along with two garden specialists, have revitalised a city-based homeless charity's outdoor space.
A five-strong team from the homebuilder volunteered alongside Norfolk Prestige Fencing and GDC Landscaping to spruce up the garden for St Martins Housing Trust.
This followed the gardeners' work to create a safe, enjoyable and practical area for those experiencing homelessness.
St Martins Housing Trust, established in 1972, offers a variety of services including emergency accommodation, residential care and confidence-building training.
Dr Jan Sheldon, chief executive of St Martins Housing Trust, said: “We are delighted with the transformation of the garden at the property, as are the residents who have recently moved in."
Simon Wood, managing director at the homebuilder said: “We are incredibly proud of the results at the garden project for St Martins Housing Trust and we are thrilled that our hard work is aimed at supporting such a worthwhile cause."
The firm has announced further fundraising and volunteering events throughout the year for St Martins, its Charity of The Year.
