Our Lady & St Edwards’ Catholic Primary School successfully applied for a share of Redrow’s £3,000 Fulwood Community Fund, launched to mark the latest phase of the Tabley Green development.

A donation of £500 has helped towards the cost and installation of an outdoor gym for the school’s infant playground.

“Our infant pupils needed up to date play apparatus. We had outdoor equipment installed on the junior playground and we knew it was a popular choice,” said Karen Woods, headteacher at Our Lady & St Edward’s Catholic Primary School.

“This new equipment has already proved to be a huge benefit to the infant school children who have access to outdoor play area during their break and lunchtime. Thank you to the team at Redrow.”

Redrow’s voluntary gifts are over and above the statutory investment linked to the Tabley Green development, which includes contributions to community infrastructure of more than £2 million.

Steve Jackson, sales director at Redrow Lancashire, said: “Our community funds were set up to support schools, groups and charities working within our communities.

“It’s great to hear this equipment is already being put to good use by the pupils at Our Lady & St Edward’s Catholic Primary School. We hope it is enjoyed for many years to come.”
