GROUPS IN BURSCOUGH OFFERED A SHARE OF £3,000 COMMUNITY FUND

COMMUNITY groups, charities, schools and good causes can apply for a new community fund being launched in Burscough.

Redrow will soon begin work on a new phase at its development in the town – The Grange at Yew Tree Park, and to mark this is inviting its neighbours to share a £3,000 community fund.

This voluntary gift to the community is over and above the statutory investment from Redrow, which include contributions to community infrastructure of more than £2 million.

Sian Pitt, sales director at Redrow Lancashire, said: “There are so many wonderful organisations and groups doing great work within this community.

“This community fund is open to all not-for-profit groups working within Burscough, we have £3,000 to share, so we want to hear from them about how we can help.

“Community plays a huge part in choosing where to live and we hope this fund will play a part in forging an ever-stronger sense of community in Burscough.”

Previous Redrow funding across the North West has helped schools, charities, youth groups, sports teams and individuals at the very heart of the community, providing a range of resources including school uniform, repairs at allotments and new facilities at a cricket club.

Redrow’s Burscough Fund is linked to a new phase forming an extension to the popular development, located on Liverpool Road South. The 12.5-acre parcel of land will include 169 new homes, 59 of which will be affordable housing.

Featuring homes from Redrow’s prestigious Heritage Collection, which blends traditional Arts & Crafts inspired exteriors with contemporary, high specification interiors, the approved plans include a mix of one to five-bedroom designs.

To find out more about Redrow’s voluntary £3,000 Burscough Community Fund and to download an application form see https://www.redrow.co.uk/promo/burscough-community-fund.

The deadline for completed applications is midnight on Friday, November 11, 2022.
