Taylor Wimpey supports Alverton Community Primary School with World Book Day donation

World Book Day celebrations at Alverton Community Primary School were boosted by a donation from Taylor Wimpey.

The school received £500 from the homebuilder in support of the national event which took place on Thursday 5th March.

Now in its 23rd year, World Book Day aims to encourage children of all ages to enjoy and appreciate the pleasures of reading.

Richard Linsley, Headteacher at Alverton Community Primary School said: “World Book Day is a fantastic initiative which really encourages children to develop their reading. We are celebrating WBD this year around the theme of The Great Kapok Tree.

“Thanks to Taylor Wimpey’s donation, we’ll be able to add some new books to our library and we can’t wait for our pupils to get stuck into some new stories.”

Steven Ball, sales and marketing director for Taylor Wimpey North Yorkshire said: “We were delighted to support Alverton Community Primary School with a donation to mark World Book Day.

“We hope the pupils had a brilliant day celebrating their favourite characters and that they all enjoy reading some new books together.”

The World Book Day donation to Alverton Community Primary School is one of many ways in which Taylor Wimpey is supporting the local communities in which it builds.

Home Reach

With Home Reach, you buy a share of your chosen home and pay a low monthly rent on the part you don't buy. You get to choose whether you buy a bigger share of a lower priced home or a smaller share of a more expensive one.

With the Taylor Wimpey partnership you can initially purchase up to 75% of your chosen home and heylo will become your landlord, granting you a 125-year lease. This means you will be able to live in your home as if you've bought it outright. You can buy more of your home in the future and stop paying rent on that part.
