ACHA, in association with local contractors, has made a major contribution to a local community venue by refurbishing the kitchen at Cowal Pipe Band Hall.
Working with ACHA’s main contractor Carillion, Dunoon based company Stewart McNee and Tiree based Kevan Brown, have completely refurbished and updated the kitchen. Old fittings have been replaced with matching units, new worktops and new electrics. There has even been an upgrade to a brand new central heating boiler donated by Worchester Bosch UK.
