2 min read | Published September 19th 2025 | Updated October 29th 2025 | James Osborne
We’re excited to be launching a competition to help one lucky school boost their storage space with a 20ft cabin.

We’re proud to be backing grassroots sport by launching a UK-wide competition to help schools overcome a common challenge – lack of storage space.
In support of the Government’s Multi-Sport Grassroots Facilities Programme, we’re giving one school the chance to win a fully installed 20ft storage cabin, providing a safe and practical solution for storing sports and playground equipment.
How do I enter?
The competition is open to all UK schools.
Entrants are invited submit a 100-word summary explaining why secure storage would make a difference to their school community.
A shortlist of finalists will be created by us, with nominated schools then encouraged to gather votes from parents, staff, and local supporters.
The winning school will receive a versatile storage cabin designed to give them the secure, practical space they need – for sports, play, and beyond.
Built to the highest safety standards using fire-resistant materials, the cabin gives schools a secure, low-maintenance storage space designed to last for years.
With more than five decades of experience, we’ve supported schools across the UK with modular facilities ranging from multi-storey classroom blocks to standalone storage cabins.
Speaking about why we’ve launched the competition, Matt Goff, our Managing Director said: “At a time when the Government has increased its investment in grassroots sport, we wanted to add our support by helping schools tackle one of their most overlooked challenges – storage. Without it schools struggle to keep sports equipment safe, accessible, and ready for children to use. We want to give back to the education providers we’ve worked alongside for the past five decades, by helping one school unlock the space it needs so more children can play, move, and thrive.”
