Today is Time to Talk Day, a reminder that even the smallest conversation can make a big difference. Mental health affects us all, and taking the time to check in with a colleague, friend, or family member can be incredibly powerful. At Cleshar, we’re committed to fostering a supportive environment, and CareFirst plays a key role in that. Care First provides confidential advice, counselling, and wellbeing resources to help our employees navigate challenges both inside and outside of work. Creating spaces where people feel comfortable talking, listening, and supporting each other is key to breaking the stigma around mental health. Let’s keep the conversation going—because mental wellbeing matters. #TimeToTalkDay #MentalHealthMatters #StartTheConversation #WellbeingAtWork

Cleshar was pleased to attend the The Bartlett School of Sustainable Construction UCL, to provide MSc Project and Enterprise Management students with valuable insights into Construction Supply Chain Management. The session explored the vital role of labour, plant, and material flow in the production process, emphasizing how strong relationships with both clients and suppliers—upstream and downstream—are key to successful supply chain management. Most importantly, the discussion reinforced the importance of caring for the workforce, a principle embedded in our culture as an Employee-Owned Trust. At Cleshar, safety and wellbeing remain at the heart of everything we do, especially in the safety-critical work we undertake. We are always proud to support the next generation of industry professionals—thank you to UCL for the opportunity to engage with such bright minds! #Cleshar #Construction #SupplyChainManagement #EmployeeOwned #SafetyFirst #UCL #SustainableConstruction

It’s Blue Monday, the saddest day of the year – but it doesn’t have to stay that way! At Cleshar, we’re committed to supporting our team and fostering a positive environment, so here are three ways to take charge of the day and turn the blues around: Check In On Each Other – Take a moment to connect with colleagues, friends, or loved ones. A kind word or a meaningful conversation can brighten someone’s day. Access Support Resources – Whether it’s through Cleshar’s mental health platform, CareFirst, or other available support, help is always within reach. Prioritize Self-Care – Small steps make a big difference. Take a break, go for a walk, or simply breathe deeply to recharge and refocus. Our colours may be blue, but you don’t have to be! Let’s take today as an opportunity to prioritize ourselves and each other. Together, we can make a difference! #BlueMonday #MentalHealth #SelfCare #Support #Cleshar #Wellbeing

One of the standout moments for Cleshar in 2024 was proudly participating in the WITNE 8 Programme in collaboration with Transport for London. This remarkable initiative brought together an inspiring group of women, empowering them on their professional journeys and fostering their growth. Hearing the candidates share how the programme helped them build confidence and develop a strong presence was incredibly rewarding. Their enthusiasm and engagement throughout, particularly during the final stages, underscore the incredible value of mentorship and collaboration in shaping bright futures. At Cleshar, our New Year’s resolution for 2025 is clear: to continue championing initiatives like WITNE 8 that make a real difference. Supporting these talented women as they take their next steps was a privilege, and we can’t wait to see the positive contributions they’ll make in their fields. Here’s to building brighter futures together—and sticking to resolutions that matter! #Cleshar #TransportandEngineering #Witne8Programme #Womenintotransportandengineering

As the winter season continues, Cleshar is prioritizing the safety and wellbeing of our operatives working on track. Ensuring the correct winter gear is worn on-site isn’t just about comfort—it’s about protection and preparedness in challenging weather conditions. From proper thermal wear to high-visibility jackets, gloves, and waterproof boots, having the right gear is essential for maintaining productivity and safety on the job. Our Winter Safety Campaign, which began in December, has been carried forward into the new year to reinforce these crucial standards. To all our operatives: thank you for your dedication and commitment to staying safe on the job, no matter the weather. Together, we can tackle the season head-on. #Cleshar #WinterSafetyCampaign #GearupforWinter
