Firefighters Keep Pushing for Charity

At Grant Property, we have regularly supported the The Scottish Fire & Rescue Service Charity Bed Push - and this year is no different!

The Bed Push, taking place this Sunday 3rd August, is organised by the kind hearted firefighers at Maryhill Fire Station in Glasgow, and all funds raised on the day are donated to the Kelbourne Park School kids.

Kelbourne Park School provides nursery and primary education for children who have additional support needs due to a physical impairment, as well as those who have additional support needs related to language or vision.

The school provides a multi-disciplinary approach, with a range of medical and therapy staff on hand to support the children.

So what is a Bed Push?

On Sunday 3rd of August, some of the kids of Kelbourne Park School will get their beds transformed into a 'fire engine' by the BBC props department, which will then be raced through the streets by the firefighters.

The Grant Property Glasgow branch have went along to various Charity Bed Push's in the past, and it's a fantastic way of raising funds for the school.

Most importantly though, the kids always have great fun!

Over the years, the firefighters have raised over a whopping £40,000 and we are are proud to be sponsoring one of the beds and be part of such a worthwhile cause.

If you would like to donate to this cause or to find out more information please email firefighter Stephen at stephen.bates@strathclydefire.org or call him on 0141 946 223.

We will hopefully have some photos from the day online next week, so make sure you 'like' Grant Property on Facebook and follow us on Twitter to see how much fun we had on the day.

Grant Property Supports Myeloma UK

We have discussed in previous blog posts that Grant Property regularly spread our generosity across various charities, and for the month of July, we will be supporting Myeloma UK, the only organisation in the UK dealing exclusively with myeloma.

For those who don’t know, Myeloma is a type of cancer arising from plasma cells which are found in the bone marrow.

And Myeloma UK, a charity that Marianne Wilson, our Letting Support Supervisor, supports on a regular basis, covers every aspect of myeloma - from information and support, to improving standards of treatment and care through research, education, campaigning and raising awareness.

Just last month, it was Myeloma Awareness Week and this interesting and informative video, which you can view below, was created to explain more about myeloma and the services that the charity provides.


We have received our Myeloma UK fundraising pack which includes banners, balloons, t-shirts and pens, so the Grant Property office is going to be decorated BRIGHT ORANGE (the charity’s colour) throughout July!

We will also have a range of activities, including a bake sale, a raffle, and special breakfasts and lunches, where all proceeds will be donated to Myeloma UK.

In addition to this, our staff pay to dress down each Friday, and these donations will also be put toward Myeloma UK.

Not only should we be able to raise a considerable amount of money for Myeloma UK, but we will hopefully also raise awareness of this little known cancer.

We will upload pictures and information on our progress throughout the month, so make sure you ‘like’ us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter to keep up-to-date.
