Benson Grange – supporting the community in Witheridge
17 December 2024
Legal & General Affordable Homes is contributing £15,500 towards community projects in the village of Witheridge, Devon, where a new development of Shared Ownership homes will be launched at Benson Grange in 2025.
We will donate £100 for each affordable home built at Benson Grange, creating a fund to support local events, organisations, charities, or groups and make a long-term difference for the local community.
The first contribution was made with a donation towards supporting the St John’s Fair in Witheridge in June 2024.
One of the oldest Royal Charter fairs in the country dating back to 1248, there had been a 5 year absence in the village before returning with great success this year.
