Taylor Wimpey Southeast has launched a new community chess competition in Polgate, giving a local good cause the opportunity to secure a £1,000 donation.

The giveaway celebrates the launch of the homebuilder's new development, The Mill, on Saturday 12th September.

Polgate residents are invited to nominate a charity, community group or local organisation that they believe deserves a helping hand.

Nominations can be submitted by emailing Polgate Community Chest at Taylor Wimpey and must include the name of the nominee along with a brief description of why they've been put forward.

Jason Stokes, Sales and Marketing Director at Taylor Wimpey South East said, We're excited to be back in Polgate and very much looking forward to supporting the community through our Community Chest initiative.

Local people know better than anyone which organisations might benefit from additional financial support.

We can't wait to receive your nominations and to award a very deserving case with a £1,000 boost.

And then I took the leap and found myself with this awesome opportunity of contracting and consulting for a good 20 years.

So I had this wonderful time seeing organisations of all different sizes and shapes, like your Russia's, Rolls-Royce, Barclays, Takeda, GSK, right through to kind of your Michael Page, Taylor Wimpey, just what it said on the 10 type organisations.

And just wonderful, like privileged position of seeing that All organisations have the same typical kind of bumps in the road when it comes to implementing change.

Every unique situation has a context, absolutely.

Funny enough, they stopped going up as much when I bought my first property, which is the story of my life.

And then if we take that one step further in terms of financial market, I've just put in here the share price total returns of a select group of UK house builders, Persimmon, Barrett, Redrow and Taylor Wimpey in blue, yellow and grey respectively over 10 years.

And all three of those lines are basically a bit like the REIT chart have gone nowhere in 10 years.

Yeah, that's about right, isn't it? Well, you say they've gone nowhere.
