CCG Invests Over £400,000 In Communities

Construction News Image
CCG (Scotland) donated more than £400,000 to community-based projects across Scotland in the 2022 / 23 financial year.

CCG was operational in 13 local authorities over the last financial year and at one stage had over 3000 mixed-tenure homes on-site.

For every project undertaken, which can be as many as 30 construction projects at a given time, CCG will undertake a range of initiatives within the communities where they are operational. Jobs, creating access to their industry-leading trade apprenticeship programmes, work placements, engagement with schools and financial donations are among the broad range of measures that are delivered at a localised level.

A recent recipient of a much-valued £3,000 donation was Clydebank FC U20's Development Squad in West Dunbartonshire. Delivered as a community benefit from the redevelopment of the former St Andrew's School site in Clydebank, which conceived 126 new affordable homes for West Dunbartonshire Council, the donation supported the Club with their weekly playing costs and will help advance their fitness and performance data analysis.

The donation forms part of a wider community benefit programme in Clydebank and across the region conceived as a result of various housing projects undertaken on behalf of the Council and housing associations over the last 4 years.

CCG Group HR Manager, Lynn Stodart, said: "To have donated £400,000 over a 12-month period is a wonderful achievement for our business. Housing-led regeneration is a catalyst for positive change in our communities but the importance of social value and the delivery of initiatives that we as a business deliver for most of our projects cannot be understated. Be it job creation or financial donations, CCG will work collaboratively with our clients to identify local projects and we are delighted to see the difference we have made in communities like Clydebank and many more across the breadth of the country."
