Calderwood

We are proud to leave a lasting legacy in East Calder

Following our donation of £500 to supply play bark and other materials, a handful of amazing dads gave up their time to make significant improvements to the outdoor space at the club, which means the children can now use the garden all-year round.  We also donated 300 spring bulbs that will add an annual splash of colour to the flowerbeds in the children’s play garden. 

The bulbs have been donated as part of our national Proud campaign to show our commitment and pride in leaving a lasting legacy in the communities in which we build. 

The planting took place on Monday 1 October and the bulbs are set to grow into a bright, floral tribute to the local area. As well as joining children from Simply Play enjoying their new climbing frame in the new-look garden, Natalie Lewis (Sales Executive) from our local team also joined in with the bulb planting.  

West Calder High School ties down our donation

As part of our ongoing commitment to working in partnership with local communities, we have recently donated £500 to West Calder High School Parent Council.

The donation will go towards its Sponsor a Tie Appeal, which aims to provide every students at West Calder High School with a free school tie, following the redesign of their school tie to mark the opening of the new school building.

This generous donation marks our return to East Calder, as the next phase of new homes at our Calderwood development are due to launch locally later this year.
