Scotland plans to deliver 100,000 new homes by 2032 to meet strong demand for housing.

Today, exam results are unveiled in Scotland after over a year of disruption to education in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. For those considering their career options, construction might not be the obvious choice. Historically the sector painted a low-paid, low- skilled picture.

As an ambassador for surfing in Scotland, and with a seat on the board at The Scottish Surfing Federation, I take every opportunity to spread the word internationally about the emerging scene in our country.

There is no greater proof that People Make Glasgow than to see the city without its crowds. The city centre has been dormant, feeling like a stage without a play.

Little did I think we would be faced with operating in a global pandemic, nor would I have predicted that we could significantly grow the business in such an unprecedented and challenging time.
