Wrekin Housing Trust appoints Park Lane contractor

The Wrekin Housing Trust has announced the appointment of a main contractor for the Park Lane Extra Care Scheme in Woodside.

Following a tendering period, several contractors were invited to give a presentation at the Trust's Old Park offices. The Trust's Board then reviewed these tenders and presentations, and last night approved the appointment of the preferred contractor, McPhillips (Wellington).

George Rushgrove, director of business development at The Wrekin Housing Trust, said:

"As a result of the tendering process, the Trust is pleased to appoint McPhillips, a local employer with strong reputation, as the successful contractor. We look forward to working with McPhillips to deliver the multi-million pound Park Lane Extra care scheme."

David Wauchope, company secretary at McPhillips, said: "As a Telford based company we are delighted to have been appointed to complete this prestigious and much needed project within our home town.

“We are looking forward to working with The Wrekin Housing Trust using our highly skilled and dedicated local workforce and supply chain, establishing a long term relationship for the future".
