Luxury Flooring and Furnishings have recently donated a number of laminate and engineered wood products to Kirklees College, based in Huddersfield.

We contacted the college in March to see whether its construction department would be interested in taking a donation of surplus stock.

Luxury Flooring’s Digital Marketing Manager Alex Humphries, said: “We occasionally get items returned to us because they are no longer wanted by the customer, or there may have been some minor damage to packaging caused in the warehouse or in transit.

“This stock would normally be written off and put in a skip, but it seemed a shame to waste it. We were happy to donate and deliver it to the college free of charge so that it can be put to good use.”

Paul Toher, Curriculum Team Leader at the college’s Brunel Construction Centre, in Huddersfield said: “Our joinery department was really happy to receive this donation because it’s a chance to provide materials that we wouldn’t usually be able to.

“We can use it within our lessons to give less experienced students the chance to understand and appreciate different types of flooring, which will be great for them.

“Huge thanks to Alex and Furnishings for thinking of Kirklees College!”
