A novel gesture! Nottingham housebuilder donates books to local school
Redrow Midlands has gifted a collection of brand-new storybooks to pupils at Forest Fields Primary and Nursery School, ensuring children have access to engaging and imaginative reading materials both in the classroom and at home.


The donation includes a selection of popular and much-loved children’s titles, carefully chosen to encourage a lifelong love of reading and spark creativity among pupils of all ages.
Elaine Cartwright, Sales Director at Redrow Midlands, said: “At Newton Garden Village, we are committed to building thriving communities that make Nottingham such a wonderful place to live – supporting local schools and the younger generations in the region is an important part of that commitment.
“We recognise the vital role reading plays in a child’s development – building confidence, creativity and essential literacy skills. By donating these books, we hope to encourage a lasting enthusiasm for reading and help ensure more children have access to stories they can enjoy.”
Shahida Chowdhury, Headteacher at Forest Fields Primary and Nursery School, said: “We are incredibly grateful to Redrow Midlands for this generous donation.
“Access to high-quality books can make a profound difference to a child’s confidence, imagination and academic development. This thoughtful contribution will not only enrich our classrooms but also help foster a genuine love of reading among our pupils – thank you, Redrow Midlands!”
Ash Holt and Wellington Place are part of the popular Newton Garden Village development, which offers a choice of three, four and five-bedroom new build properties.
These sought-after homes are part of Redrow’s award-winning Heritage Collection and are just eight miles from Nottingham’s town centre. The development also provides a rural setting with excellent commuter links by road and rail.
