Our Activities in the South of Scotland


“The Construction Learning Accounts have provided a much appreciated helping hand in the organising of priorities and helping to fund staff training. It is a great idea!

The CLAs help small businesses to move forward. The BCIF and the CLAs go hand in hand to make business life easier for construction companies in the Borders.”

Nick Gunn, Managing Director, NG Contracting Ltd
