Award-winning housebuilder Miller Homes East Midlands has made a cash donation of £300 to The Rumbles Catering Project to help it continue providing training services to disadvantaged young people and adults.

Based at Vicar Water Country Park, Clipstone, Rumbles has developed training programmes and can provide NVQ and ACLS (Adult Community Learning Services) courses for up to 13 trainees, all with a range of learning disabilities.

In 2007 Rumbles took over the management of the Community Cafe at Sutton Lawn Pleasure Ground in Sutton in Ashfield, and earlier this year took over the running of a similar venture in Newark.

Gina Dolan, who manages the project, commented: "The organisation relies on charitable support to help it continue providing a valuable service to the community.

"The donation from Miller Homes will go some way to buying essential items for the running of the project. We're very grateful to Miller Homes and to all of our supporters."

Miller Homes, with its exclusive development at Sandhurst Gardens, off Forest Road, Mansfield, is proud of its involvement in the communities in which it has sites.

Sales director Joy Goodman commented: "Rumbles was highlighted to us as an organisation whose work is unique in the community and one that fully deserves the support of individuals and responsible businesses."

Sandhurst Gardens has proved to be a highly popular development for Miller Homes, with a recent buyer liking the site so much that they purchased the showhouse itself.

There are now only a handful of opportunities left to buy a home at Sandhurst Gardens, which is in the catchment areas of good schools and within easy reach of excellent leisure amenities and transport links.
