Leisure, Travel & Tourism - Galashiels, Scotland, United Kingdom
WAM is a leisure and development company created to build out the planning permission secured in 2006 and 2007 at Craik, Hawick in the Scottish Borders. Its intention is to create a leisure facility of around 70 homes featuring cutting edge eco installations and an off grid example of rural communities. Woodlands Asset Management Limited is working towards having the project monitored by a leading Scottish University to create a case study that can be repeated by this or other companies in other parts of Scotland as we try to achieve a proven example of off grid/ zero carbon communities and meet Scottish 2020 and 2050 carbon reduction targets. Hopefully advances shown here in individual homes in this development can also be successfully mirrored in towns and cities internationally.
