The Chester Community Fund is open to groups and good causes based close to or serving the areas around the development on Wrexham Road.
Caroline Thompson-Jones, area sales manager for our North West division, said: “We last launched a community fund in this area in 2020 and we thought now was a great time to launch another to tie in with the milestone of us welcoming our 150th resident. This also means that were about 20% of our way into building a new community of over 700 Redrow homes. We want to hear from any community groups, charities and schools who have got projects they need help with.”
With the addition of this latest fund, we have voluntarily gifted more than £175,000 to the neighbourhoods in which we build. This is over and above the statutory investment from us linked to planning consents, such as contributions to education, healthcare, public transport and affordable housing.
Previous funding from us 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 play equipment, defibrillators, furniture, food parcels, counselling and more.
Caroline added: “Perhaps you’re a community group who has plans to offer new classes or you’re a charity who needs extra funding to support more families in the area. Our community funds are there to help you, so we would urge you to apply.”
Kings Moat Garden Village offers a wide selection of three and four-bedroom homes in a community within a community with play areas, green spaces, cycle ways and footpaths for residents and the wider neighbourhood to enjoy.
