Vistry Ventures, the developers behind Gallions Reach, spread some festive cheer at Gallions Reach with mulled wine and mince pies, with carols by Vocal Shack – a Newham based choir.

Vocal Shack is made up of members from NewYVC – a non-auditioned friendly youth choir for young singers – and recent alumni from the Young Leaders Programme – who support community choirs. A generous donation from Vistry Ventures will help support training for those on the Youth Leaders Programme.

Jai Gill, Associate Sales Director at Vistry Ventures comments, “We wanted to spread some festive cheer at Gallions Place, and we did just that. It was lovely to meet with new and incoming residents during the evening. Vocal Shack were superb, we are delighted to be supporting them and the work they do in the community!”

Gallions Place is a new riverside community which brings the best of urban living to a reimagined corner of historic East London. The scheme by Vistry Ventures and Notting Hill Genesis is made up of three separate apartment buildings – Cargo House, Grain Apartments and Galyon Point.

Once complete, Gallions Place will become the centrepiece of the community with retail space and conveniences on ground level along with landscaped public space and new homes. It is anticipated to be home to a restaurant with café-sprawl square seating with public realm designed for play along with a MUGA (multi-sports games pitch), ideal for lazy Sunday morning dates with the newspaper and a coffee.

Located in Zone 3, Gallions Place is moments from Gallions Reach DLR station which has superb links into Canary Wharf and beyond. Just a few stops from Custom House, residents will also enjoy Crossrail Links connecting Royal Docks with Heathrow, central London in addition to Stratford International and beyond. It is also less than a 10 minute drive from City Airport.
