TAYLOR Wimpey West Scotland has announced a new partnership with St Andrew’s Hospice in Airdrie which will see £25 donated for each new home sold and legally completed within the first phase of homes at its Calder Wynd development in Carnbroe, near Coatbridge.
In total, £4,700 will be paid to the hospice as work on phase one of the development progresses.
St Andrew’s Hospice provides specialist palliative care to people living with life-limiting illnesses. Led by a consultant medical team, the hospice offers 24 in-patient beds, outpatient and wellbeing services, its Compassionate Lanarkshire community project, and grief and bereavement support services.
Lorna McCafferty, trusts, legacy and individual giving manager of St Andrew’s Hospice, said, “We are extremely grateful for the support that we will receive from Taylor Wimpey West Scotland, and we can’t thank them enough for their generous donation. This money will be put to work locally to help us deliver a range of projects to those who need the support of St Andrew’s Hospice. On behalf of everyone who uses our services, I would like to say a huge thank you.”
Audrey Ross, sales and marketing director at Taylor Wimpey West Scotland, added, “We are delighted to be able to support St Andrew’s Hospice in this meaningful way. Our announcement signals the creation of a relationship with a very worthy local charity that will provide a link between the new community that will grow at our Calder Wynd development in Carnbroe, and the existing community of Coatbridge, Airdrie, and the wider North Lanarkshire area.
“Being able to work with local charities and organisations that surround our developments means a great deal to us, and it’s always lovely to know that we are helping to make a difference to the lives of people in our local communities.”
