Don't get cut off this Christmas

Over the last few weeks, we have been writing some safety blog posts to help you get settled in to your new properties - and this week's blog is to help you keep on top of your electricity.

When moving into a new property, it is always important to know how to deal with various electrical faults.

For example, if your electricity went off, would you know where your fuse box is? Or how to reset your fuses?

If not, Philip from Grant Property talks you through how to resolve some of these problems with your electricity, and also gives you some tips on how you can avoid these problems.



If you have any questions regarding our help videos, or if there are any other questions you wish to ask, please post them to our Facebook Page, and a member of our team will get back to you.

Ensure your Safety in our Properties!



Over the next few weeks Grant Property will be writing blog posts to help you get settled in to your new properties!



One of the most important tips we will probably give you, is in this video. In this video, Philip from Grant Property, highlights how important it is to always make sure that your smoke alarm and fire alarm are always active, and to make you change the batteries when it is necessary to do so.

I'm sure we won't have to explain to you what could happen if there was an emergency one night and you have no working alarm. So please take the time to watch this video and share with your friends if you have found it useful.


If you have any questions regarding our help videos, or if there are any other questions you wish to ask, please post them to our Facebook Page, and a member of our team will get back to you.

Grant Property help raise funds for Kelbourne Park School

As you may have noticed on our blog recently, the Grant Property Glasgow branch helped support Maryhill Fire Service’s Charity Bed Push on the 3rd of August for Kelbourne Park School.

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.

And having sponsored one of the beds in the Charity Bed Push, we received a heartwarming thank you letter from the pupils and staff from Kelbourne Park School and the firefighters of Maryhill Fire Station.

The letter said: ‘The firefighters of Maryhill Fire Station along with the pupils and staff of Kelbourne Park School would like to take this opportunity to express our thanks to all at Grant Property, for the support you have given towards this year’s charity event in our joint effort to raise funds for this local worthwhile cause.

‘This year’s event has raised £3500; this total was attained in no small part by the generous support of yourself and other local businesses.

‘This cash injection, at a time when the economic climate is so restrictive, will provide much needed funds to carry out repairs and improvements to the school. Providing these facilities will enrich the pupil’s experience, during their early school years at this inspiring local school.'

We are absolutely delighted to have played our part in this wonderful event, and we are equally as happy to have helped raise such a fantastic amount of money.
