Craigmyle working with schools

"Now that the Appeal has been wound up and achieved the very satisfactory amount of just under £1,200,000, I would like to write and thank you and Craigmyle for the really excellent work you did on behalf of the school. This is the third appeal that has taken place whilst I have been with the school and easily the best run and most effective and what also mattered to me was that it was run in a way that maintained the goodwill of the parents and other donors. So many congratulations to you and your company."

Geoffrey van Cutsem FRICS, ex Chairman of Governors - St. Mary's School, Ascot
