Our community benefits programme has funded new bowling shoes for Radnorshire Indoor Bowling Association in Llandrindod Wells, Powys.
At Newydd, we are lucky enough to collaborate with generous contactors who have the desire to support local communities. As a result, contactors contribute to our community benefit fund. We employed J.G Hale Construction Limited to build a total of 55 brand new affordable homes on Ithon Road in Llandrindod Wells and we would like to thank them for their support of the community benefits fund.
