We were thrilled to host 9 young people from the Action for Children group at our Cowcaddens and Dobbie's Loan site in Glasgow, which we are pleased to be delivering on behalf of Glasgow City Council. This was a fantastic opportunity for us to share insights into the civil engineering industry and the exciting pathways it offers. The day began with a brief tour on-site, where the young people learned about plant operations, featuring our amazing vacuum excavator! From there, Chris Preen , Leslie McNeil, BS, MSc, and Angela Newlands led the group past our site works to the nearby National Piping Centre where the children enjoyed an interactive presentation and unleashed their creativity by designing birdhouses, encouraging them to think about the environment around them. We’re proud to play a part in inspiring the next generation and encouraging an interest in engineering and the environment. #CivilEngineering #CommunityEngagement #FutureEngineers #EnvironmentalAwareness #PeopleMakeGlasgow #TeamWills #AvenuesProject #PublicRealm #Glasgow850
