Contractor makes Christmas donation to Edinburgh homeless charity

BAM Construction’s team working on Edinburgh’s new premier office development, Capital Square, rallied round to donate 120 selection boxes to the Grassmarket Community Project which provides a drop-in meal service for the homeless community.

The gift-wrapped boxes will be distributed this week to community members attending a Christmas lunch.

Johnny Kinross, chief executive at Grassmarket Community Project, said: “A simple gift like this can make a huge difference to alleviate loneliness at a difficult time of year for many of the vulnerable people we support.”

Capital Square is a 122,000 sq ft, eight-floor purpose-built office development centrally located in the city’s Exchange business district, between Morrison Street and Lothian Road. The development is being built by BAM Construction on behalf of BAM Properties in partnership with Hermes Investment Management, the £30.8 billion manager.
