Dan Soulsby, National Construction Account Manager says “EGGER UK provide many builders with their structural flooring boards. When fixed using EGGER Joint & Joist Adhesive and as per our recommended fitting method, builders not only benefit from the simple system that saves time and money but also creates floors that are structurally guaranteed for a lifetime. This is only possible due to the quality of EGGER tongue and groove structural flooring boards and adhesive, and used in combination with our tried and testing system”.
For the community, with the community, by the community
As a project that is 100% owned and ran by the local community, the local residents are at the heart of all the community centres’ activities. The community hub aims to improve the communities’ health and wellbeing, social inclusion and social capital through the communities’ willingness to help each other. Any profit generated from the hub and services provided is directly re-invested back into the facility. The hub takes a community development approach to all their activities, by listening to their community members and valuing their knowledge, skills and experience, focusing on reducing inequalities and rural isolation in the community. The common agenda between the local residents and the community hub, by sharing knowledge, ideas and combining resources helps to further improve the wellbeing of the community.
“It’s great to see the direct benefits the hub has on the local residents, many of who work at EGGER Barony and to know how the company has played a role in support supporting this community project,” says Heiko Lichtblau, Plant Director for EGGER Barony.
A variety of rooms are on offer to the community to hire, from the Ochil Hall which can be used for corporate meetings, conferences or social events such as ceilidhs and parties, to smaller meeting rooms with state-of-the-art audio visual equipment and high definition monitors. The hub also offers a community book point where local residents can access a range of books covering topics such as local history, fiction as well as children’s fiction.
