Kenton Bank Mill, Kingston Park

Taylor Wimpey North East has donated £1000 to the Kingston Park Play Area Fund at its recent Zumba-thon fundraising event.

We've contributed to help with the refurbishment of the Kingston Park play area, located near its Kenton Bank Mill development in Newcastle, which has been fallen victim to a spate of vandalism over recent months.

John Gardener, coordinator at Kingston Park Play Area Fund comments: “Spending time outdoors is crucial for young people and the wider community, which is why we’re thrilled to have received the support from Taylor Wimpey to further raise funds for the new and improved community area.

“It was great to see so many local residents join us at the Zumba-thon and, with the generous donation from Taylor Wimpey, we raised a fantastic £2000 during the event.

“We can’t thank Taylor Wimpey enough for the generous contribution towards the play area, it will go a long way towards reaching our goal of moving the play area to the new site for all to enjoy.”

Sarah Northcott, sales and marketing director for Taylor Wimpey North East, adds: “Here at Taylor Wimpey, we’re proud to support the causes close to the hearts of the communities in which we build, which is why we’re only too happy to have been part of the Zumba-thon fundraiser.

“We hope the new park will be ready for all to enjoy soon and we can’t wait to see local people, old and young, enjoying the improved area.”
