“Social infrastructure such as The Hub @Bonnyrigg (Dhanawi) is crucial for any community, creating vibrant and inclusive spaces where people can get to know their neighbours,” Mr Wendler said.

“Landcom’s developments stand the test of time because we create strong, resilient, and thriving communities – like Newleaf at Bonnyrigg.

“The opening of The Hub @Bonnyrigg represents the end of Landcom’s involvement in the redevelopment of Bonnyrigg and I am incredibly proud to be leaving on such a high note."
