Altrad Join Forces With Craigielea Care Home To Brighten Residents Day

Craigielea Care Home has welcomed a team of volunteers from neighbouring business ALTRAD, who spent time helping to brighten and refresh the gardens at the Renfrew care home.

Altrad Join Forces With Craigielea Care Home To  Brighten Residents Day

The visit formed part of ALTRAD’s commitment to community engagement, giving members of its team the opportunity to support a local organisation and make a positive difference in the area where they work.

Located just over the road from Craigielea, the care home was a natural choice for the initiative. It also holds particular significance for several members of the ALTRAD team, making the opportunity to spend time at the home and enhance its outdoor surroundings especially meaningful.

The volunteers focused their efforts on sprucing up the gardens at the front of the home, creating a brighter outlook for residents, families, colleagues and visitors to enjoy.

Community engagement is an important part of our company ethos, and we want to make a positive contribution to the communities in which our people live and work. 


Craigielea is quite literally on our doorstep and, for some members of our team, the home is especially close to their hearts. It was therefore an obvious choice for us, and we were delighted to spend time there brightening its gardens for residents, families and everyone visiting the home.

ALTRAD's Head of Marketing and Communications

Steven McLellan, Service Manager at Craigielea Care Home, said: “We are incredibly grateful to the ALTRAD team for choosing to spend their time with us and for bringing such enthusiasm to the day.

“Our gardens are an important part of the welcoming environment we create at Craigielea. The work completed at the front of the home has made a real difference, and we know the refreshed surroundings will bring many more smiles to the faces of our residents.

“It is wonderful to build relationships with our neighbours and to see a local business choosing to engage so positively with the community around it.”

Craigielea Care Home provides nursing, residential and dementia care and is especially proud of their Adams Unit which provides specialist care for Young Disabled People within a warm and welcoming home setting in Renfrew. To learn more about the home, visit Craigielea Care Home.
