What are we doing to help?
People and communities
Cala Homes has launched a major initiative
set to expand support for the local
communities in which we build.
Cala is committed to bringing added value
and meaningful benefit not just through the
homes we create, but by investing and
enhancing in the very essence of what brings
a local community together. We want to
listen, take action and really make a
difference.
To reflect our commitment to our communities
over the lifecycle of our developments, we
have introduced our Community Pledge. Our
Pledges bring together a host of bespoke
measures for each local community including
activities, donations, initiatives, volunteering
drives and much more.
Each Pledge will start from the conception
of the development, right through to the last
resident picking up the keys to their new
home – and everything will be done in

collaboration with the communities we seek
to support, to ensure we address genuine
local needs.
The Community Pledge is an evolution of the
many successful community programmes
Cala has introduced over the years, including
our Community Bursary which has provided
over £400,000 worth of funding to more
than 400 organisations and projects within
communities across Scotland and England
since 2016.
Sustainability
Sustainability has been a focus area for
some time at Cala, and we’ve already taken
significant steps to reduce our environmental
impact and transform our business.
We are on a journey, and this is just the start.
