Social value

Nottingham made us. We put something back.

We started as a family firm here over thirty years ago. Social value isn't a tender heading to us: it's local jobs, local suppliers, the clubs our people grew up in, and the public spaces the city shares.

Localemployment & apprenticeships

A Nottingham workforce, with apprentices trained on live sites.

Localsupply chain spend

Nottinghamshire subcontractors and suppliers first.

Communitydonations & volunteering

Paint for children's homes, a garden for the NHS, grassroots sport sponsorship, year round.

Environmentwaste & materials

Documented waste streams and recycling on demolition projects.

A fresh coat of paint for Nottingham's children's homes

We believe businesses have a responsibility to leave a positive impact beyond the work they deliver. This summer we donated trade paint to children's homes across Nottingham, helping refresh and brighten the spaces where young people live. It's only possible because of our team and the organisations we work alongside who share the same commitment to giving something back.

Social value isn't an obligation to us. It's how we do business.

Sponsorship

In Emmanuel's corner at the Algarve Box Cup

Through Clifton ABC we sponsor Nottingham boxer Emmanuel Appiah. This year that meant funding his trip to the Algarve Box Cup in Portugal, where he fought his way to the final in Warburton colours and lost a razor-thin decision. Gene was there supporting from the crowd, and we'll be backing him for the next one.

3-2 in the final. Next time.

A garden for the Oncology Unit

We donated and built a garden area for the Oncology Unit at Nottingham City Hospital, giving patients and the nurses who care for them somewhere green to take a breath. The plaque is still on the table, and the garden is still growing.

Volunteering at Clifton ABC's home show

We volunteered at Clifton ABC's home show as proud sponsors. Great to support the local talent and see the community come together for a great show, and another Belt win for the club.

Schools & health

Better spaces for Nottingham's schools and health centres

Over the last year our team has been upgrading, maintaining and improving spaces across Nottingham's education and healthcare environments, from classrooms to health centres. Quiet work, done around the people who use these buildings every day.

A quiet place to remember at Wilford Hill

Our refurbishment at Wilford Hill Crematorium included a new Book of Remembrance Room and an overflow space for services. Work like this doesn't make headlines, but it matters enormously to the families who use it.
