Caddick Construction, the main contractor for Jubilee Gardens in West Paddock, has pledged a £6.6m social value investment in Leyland and the wider Lancashire area. The commitment comes as work officially gets underway on site, marked by a groundbreaking ceremony on site, which was attended by representatives from South Ribble Borough Council, Caddick Construction and Identity Consult.
Trust Paul Dodsworth, Caddick Construction Group’s Managing Director, said: “Being entrusted to build a new development, especially one that will serve the community, is an opportunity to leave a lasting legacy but this goes far beyond the building itself. 'Before we had even put a spade in the ground, our teams spent time getting to know the community, looking at ways we can work with and support our neighbours.
