Last year Broadacres celebrated our 25th anniversary and to mark the event we pledged to undertake 25 activities throughout the year that would make a difference to our customers and communities.

We are pleased to announce that we achieved our goal and a few examples are outlined below:

  • Royal Wedding celebrations – to mark the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, residents at our extra care schemes came to together with their family and friends to hold themed parties.
  • Gilling West opening – our rural housing scheme near Richmond was officially opened by local MP Rishi Sunak. This is one of several schemes which provides affordable homes for local people.
  • Charity events – we supported a range of charitable events, including Jeans for Genes Day, Wear it Pink Day, Children in Need, Christmas Jumper Day and the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning.
  • Golf Day – our annual Golf Day raised a fantastic £4,000 for our charity of the year, Blood Bikes Cleveland and North Yorkshire.
  • Community improvements – we worked with you, our customers, to carry out a number of improvements to spaces in our communities, including transforming a popular green space in Knotto Bottom Way, Northallerton, and tree planting at various locations.
  • Digital competition – we ran a competition to win one of three iPad’s for anyone who registered, or who had already registered, on the My Account section of the Broadacres website.

We would like to thank everyone who took part in the 25 activities and we hope you agree that they did make a difference to our customers and communities.
