Here at Sillars Properties we are always looking for ways in which we can support the local community. Our team have partnered up with Marrick Priory outdoor Activity Centre to help local Darlington Children who would otherwise be unable to attend an Outdoor Activity experience day.

For nearly 50 years Marrick Priory have been able to welcome a huge variety of school groups, adult groups, youth projects and special needs groups of all ages, backgrounds and cultures.

The Priory believe that each guest is an individual with their own unique gifts and abilities. We seek to encourage and develop self-respect, respect for others and for the natural environment we all share. This is achieved through a range of activities that promote participation, teamwork, personal challenge, independence, friendship and personal responsibility.

Adventurous activity has been an important part of the Priory’s work over the last 40 years. They have sought to enable visitors both young and old to discover their gifts and unlock their potential. Undertaking adventurous activities together has an uncanny way of teaching us more about ourselves, each other and provides us with opportunities to consider the bigger questions in life.

In conclusion whether groups follow an active or reflective programme then the aim is to provide a positive and enriching experience of heritage, countryside and community life in a Christian environment that will be remembered for a life time.

To do our part as Sillars Properties, we will be carrying out numerous fund raising events within the local community. The first of these will be us taking our entire team on a weekend of sponsored outdoor activity. During this weekend the guys will be orienteering, lots of walking and much more! Trust me, getting some of our guys to walk is a struggle in itself!!
