Taylor Wimpey west Scotland supports Carnbroe nursery garden project

To mark National Gardening Month, Taylor Wimpey West Scotland partnered with Riverbank Primary School's nursery class in Carnbroe for a hands-on planting session aimed at inspiring a love of nature and supporting outdoor learning.

Each child received a seed house to plant, with the aim of transforming the nursery’s raised flower beds into vibrant, pollinator-friendly spaces.

Audrey Ross, sales and marketing director for Taylor Wimpey West Scotland, said: "As the new community at our Calder Wynd development in Carnbroe grows, supporting local schools and helping young people is something we’re incredibly passionate about.

"National Gardening Month gives us a wonderful opportunity to get involved and support the communities where we build, and by planting these seed houses, the children are learning how things grow while also helping to create a more colourful, wildlife-friendly space.

"We’re delighted to contribute to their school garden improvements and to play a part in nurturing their curiosity about the environment."

The housebuilder also donated £500 to the nursery to support ongoing improvements to its garden.

Amy Brown, principal lead of the nursery at Riverbank Primary School, said: "Our children were so excited to take part in planting the seed houses, and it has sparked so much conversation and enthusiasm about nature.

"Activities like this help build confidence outdoors and encourage the children to care for their environment.

"We are extremely grateful to Taylor Wimpey West Scotland for their generosity — both the seed houses and the £500 donation will make a real difference to our garden.

"We are already planning to install a new summer house, which will give the children even more opportunities to learn and play outdoors."
