Glasgiven Contracts begins work on Shimna Integrated College, Newcastle

Further to a successful Pre-Construction Phase, work has commenced on the 30-month Construction Phase of the new Shimna Integrated College in Newcastle, Co. Down. Our work on the £19 million replacement College will deliver modern state-of-the-art, energy efficient facilities, which will support the education of students across the greater Mourne area.

As a local contractor, with our headquarters based outside Annalong, we are thrilled to be a part of this project, which will provide opportunities locally throughout our supply chain.

Glasgiven Contracts Director Cormac Murphy said: “We are delighted to have been awarded the contract for Shimna Integrated College. Having contributed to its development in the past, we look forward to helping to build its future.

The project will provide job opportunities in the area, including steps-to-work, apprenticeships and work placements for young people keen to explore career paths linked to the Construction Industry.”

We look forward to continuing our work with Project Manager #HMK and #GregoryArchitects , as well as our own Design Team #McAdamDesign and #TroupBywaters+Anders, as we deliver this prestigious building at the foot of the Mournes.
