The company have been speaking with landlords and exploring available properties.

Posting on Facebook, Golden Tree Estates said: “We have been deeply saddened to see the impact that the recent evacuations in Coalsnaughton have had on so many local families.

“At Golden Tree Estates, we have always believed that being part of a community means more than simply selling and letting homes. It means stepping forward when people need support.

“Over the past few days, our team has been working behind the scenes to help affected families find temporary accommodation.

“We have been speaking with landlords, exploring available properties, and wherever possible, offering some of our own accommodation to provide a safe place for people during this difficult and uncertain time.

“We know that for many families this is about much more than bricks and mortar. It is about the stress of being displaced from your home, the uncertainty of not knowing what comes next, and trying to maintain some sense of normality for your family.

“If you or someone you know has been affected by the evacuations and is still struggling to find alternative accommodation, please tag them below (and share this post) and get in touch with our team.

“While we cannot guarantee a solution for everyone, we will do our very best to help by reaching out to our network of landlords and identifying any vacant properties that may be suitable for temporary accommodation.

“Our community has always been strongest when people come together, and we remain committed to supporting local families during this challenging time”.
