Together, these developments will add significantly to a pipeline that has already delivered six care homes and created more than 350 high-quality beds since 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The Penicuik care home, for example, is due for completion later this month and sits within a large-scale residential masterplan at Greenlaw Mains. In Anniesland, Glasgow, a new care home is being built on unused land formerly belonging to the Yarrow Recreation Club, with the land sale contributing to upgrades for the club itself. In Linlithgow, a mixed-use site is underway that will include both 60 bed spaces and 18 low-carbon apartments for sale, delivered by CCG Homes.<\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/210310 4516 Greenbank CGI4_3.jpg\" alt=\"Work starts on new care home in Clarkston\" class=\"w-100\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Each care home delivered through the partnership supports around 100 jobs across construction and operation, and each brings together a wide range of amenities to support residents, including private en-suite bedrooms, cinema rooms, a hair salon, champagne bar, and dining rooms with meals prepared by professionally-trained chefs.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Sokhi, managing director of Morrison Community Care Group, said: \u201cWe are delighted to see the Greenbank Luxury Suites move forward. Working with CCG and our appointed design team \u2013 comprising Holmes Miller, Design Me, Cowal Design, and CRGP &#8211; we\u2019ve been able to create environments that offer safety, comfort and quality of life for residents, while also enabling regeneration and reinvestment in community assets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis project will not only provide a much-needed care facility, but will also allow the church to redevelop and continue serving the local area.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>David Wylie, managing director of CCG (Scotland), added: \u201cOur partnership with Morrison Community Care continues to set a benchmark for the delivery of modern, energy-efficient care homes across Scotland. We are particularly proud that these projects are created using the extent of our in-house services, ensuring quality and speed of delivery, while delivering much-valued community assets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe look forward to working alongside the Clarkston community in the months ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Work is underway on a new, state-of-the-art care home in Clarkston, East Renfrewshire &#8211; the latest project in&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":340619,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7826],"tags":[748,918,4884,712,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-340618","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-glasgow","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-glasgow","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-scotland","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115020394941539893","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340618","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=340618"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/340618\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/340619"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=340618"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=340618"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=340618"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
