Donation to Children's Dance Group
Posted on Wednesday 5 May 2010
At a recent event hosted by Shian Housing Group, Andy Bugler was amongst the audience who were entertained by the wonderfully talented Amberliegh Children's Drum & Dance Group. The London based group put on a whole host of African song and dance, coupled with some excellent contemporary solo performances.
Realising that the Group is run by an extremely dedicated and passionate volunteer, we were delighted to offer them a donation of £250. Our offer was matched by Lindhill Consultancy, so together we hope this will help encourage the Group to continue to entertain throughout London for years to come.

Health & Safety "SILVER" Award
Posted on Friday 16 April 2010
Our on-going commitment to Health & Safety throughout our organisation has been recognised with an NHBC Silver Award in the Company Recognition Category. Our Health & Safety processes and procedures are constantly monitored by the NHBC Auditors and this Award is testament to the fact that we have again achieved a "Very Good" rating. Managing Director, Andy Bugler, commented that "Health & Safety is our number one priority and this award is particularly pleasing as it is based on an on-going audit across our operations and not merely a snapshot assessment. It is an excellent achievement and our next challenge will be to make some finite improvements so that we can achieve a Gold Award next year".
Sunnymeade Court, Oxford Shortlisted in Prestigious Award Competition
Posted on Thursday 1 April 2010
The site we built for A2Dominion at Sunnymeade Court, Oxford (Meadow Gardens) has been shortlisted for the First Time Buyer awards, which will be presented by Phil Spencer of Channel 4's Location, Location, Location.
The scheme of just 30 homes, in Jackson Road, north Oxford, has already made headlines for its unique use of public artwork, which hangs from one side of the building, while A2Dominion also got local school children involved in the naming of the scheme. Gerry Walker, A2Dominion's Development Director (South East), said: "We are thrilled to be shortlisted in the Best Small Development category, and we look forward with anticipation to the results." Run by First Time Buyer magazine in conjunction with The Times newspaper, the awards aim to showcase the best services that have helped people to get on the home-buy ladder. The shortlisted award entries are voted for by readers of First Time Buyer magazine, with the judges votes, readers' panel and external reader votes all being used to determine the final result.
Further information about all shortlised entries is available at www.ftbawards.co.uk. The winners will be announced during the ceremony at The Landmark Hotel in London on April 22nd 2010.
Harrow Cricket Force
Posted on Wednesday 31 March 2010
Our commitment to assisting local sports teams recently led us to dig a 200M trench and install cables to supply electric to the new scoreboard at Harrow St Mary’s Cricket Club. Our efforts, however, were dwarfed by the hands-on volunteers from Middlesex Cricket Club and the England Ladies team who as part of Nat West Cricket Force 2010, turned up on mass last Friday to paint the pavilion and perimeter fencing.
As the photo’s show, the volunteers included current England Captain, Andrew Strauss, together with former internationals Mike Gatting and Angus Fraser. Our maintenance Manager, Ken Eichen was there to lend a hand but Sky Sports and the National Press focussed their lenses and microphones elsewhere!
Construction Training Inititive
Posted on Monday 8 February 2010
Congratulations to Karim Najm who is featured in the February CTI Construction Training Bulletin. Karim was a former CTI trainee who was introduced to Bugler Developments in 2001 when working as a Trainee Carpenter on our site for Acton HA in Hounslow. Karim's management potential was soon spotted so we decided to offer him a full time position with us as a Trainee Site Manager. He has since progressed up the management chain and is now an experienced Site Manager and, ironically, is back in Hounslow as part of the management team on our scheme of 76 flats currently being constructed for Metropolitan Housing Trust.
