McTaggart Construction goes “beyond bricks and mortar” to ensure each new housing development brings value to the local community beyond the life cycle of the build.

 

Through continuous engagement with local stakeholders and partners we aim to deliver a programme of support and opportunity for North Lanarkshire residents and Community organisations.

 

Our Community Benefit programme is focussed on the following themes:

 

• Education and curriculum support

• Work placement provision

• Jobs creation

• Community development

• Opportunities for North Lanarkshire Business

 

Targets and outcomes will be agreed for the Newton Drive project that support the needs of the local community and aims of North Lanarkshire Council.
