An East Midlands housebuilder has pumped more than £3.5million into improving local communities.
Redrow East Midlands, which is currently building at seven developments across the region, has made a significant investment into all its surrounding communities – over £3.5million – and isn’t finished yet.
With developments proving popular with buyers looking for their dream home, Redrow East Midlands has been hard at work supporting the surrounding areas, providing funds to support local education services, infrastructure and biodiversity.
Supporting local bio-diversity a key priority, and the developments have seen hundreds of pounds poured into the creation of animal-friendly spaces, with woodland planting and meadow grasslands aimed at making the developments a sanctuary for nature, as well as residents.
Across Leicestershire, Redrow has invested over £752,000, with a further £706,000 still to be invested in supporting local communities to thrive.
At Foxbridge Manor, in Castle Donington, Derbyshire, over £1.2million has already been invested in the local community, with a further £1.1million still to be invested – including in local youth and adult facilities, and support for local recreational grounds.
Meanwhile, at Redrow at Nicker Hill, Nottinghamshire, over £600,000 has already been invested into local health and education services, as well as funds to help maintain the local bus stops and provide bus taster tickets to local people. Further contributions of almost £200,000 are underway to improve local sports facilities and swimming pool.
The housebuilder is also implementing measures to reduce its carbon footprint, closely monitoring its water, electricity and gas usage to reduce environmental impact as much as possible.
Ryan O’Sullivan, Sales Director for Redrow East Midlands, said: “We are thrilled to be continuing to support East Midlands communities and improving the sustainability of our already popular developments, while bringing much-needed homes in the region. Our commitment to creating thriving communities benefits the local area, our residents and those looking to move in the future.
“With investment in local education providers, youth and adult facilities, and biodiversity, we are proud of the difference we’ve made so far and are excited to continue supporting the region.
“Our developments are proving incredibly popular with buyers and we’d encourage anyone looking to purchase a new home to come along and chat to our friendly team about how we can help you find your dream home!”
