News / The ‘Crown Highway’ is Officially Open – A Proud Milestone in Support of Kids Village
Crown Highways is delighted to announce the completion and official opening of the brand-new access road to Kids Village, marking a significant step forward for the UK’s first holiday village designed exclusively for children with critical illnesses. Affectionately dubbed ‘The Crown Highway’, the road stands as a lasting contribution to a project that will bring comfort, joy, and respite to countless families.
Kids Village will offer families facing the toughest of challenges a safe, peaceful haven to spend quality time together away from the pressures of daily life.
The project will provide specially designed lodges, accessible facilities, and a range of experiences to bring joy, comfort, and connection to children and their families.
Crown Highways’ involvement marks the latest in a long line of charitable and community-focused efforts from the company. By delivering this essential infrastructure, the team is quite literally paving the way for countless families to experience hope and happiness during difficult times.
From the outset, this scheme has been a source of immense pride across the entire Crown Highways team. It is a project that resonates on a personal level for many, and one that Chairman Steve Jones has been particularly passionate about supporting.
The construction of the access road was more than just another piece of infrastructure.
Every individual involved played their part in something with real purpose – helping to lay the foundations for a place that will offer rest, hope, and precious memories to children and their families facing some of life’s most difficult challenges.
As the final stone was laid and the route officially opened, there was a shared sense of enjoyment, pride, and accomplishment among the Crown team. Being able to contribute to a charitable project of such significance is an honour that perfectly reflects the company’s values and community-centred ethos.
Chairman Steve Jones said:
“To everyone at Kids Village, Crown Highways extends heartfelt best wishes as the project moves confidently into its next chapter. The team is excited to see the site continue to grow and flourish, and they look forward to returning in the near future to witness the incredible impact this unique and inspiring initiative will have.”
MD Mike Dale added:
“We’re extremely proud to support Kids Village with such an incredibly important mission. What these children and their families are going through are things that no child should have to face, and if we can be a small part of respite or reprieve from the challenges being battled on a day-to-day basis then our collective efforts are more than worth it. It’s a fantastic cause, a fantastic charity and we’re very proud to be associated with Kids Village and the work they do.”
The new access road represents a crucial milestone in bringing Kids Village closer to completion, enabling future works to progress smoothly and safely.
For Crown Highways, it’s another example of using its expertise and resources to make a positive impact beyond the highways network – supporting meaningful causes that enhance lives and communities.
The road may now be complete, but the journey of Kids Village is only just beginning – and Crown Highways is proud to have helped pave the way.
