This week’s On The Tools vlog, is a mix of fun, heartfelt moments and announcements! ✨ We kick things off with a quick arm wrestle between Alice Brookes and Joe Shirley, but then we look into the incredible work of our sponsor, Band of Builders. Alice shares the powerful story of Mark, a tradesperson whose journey through a life-changing injury led to amazing support from BoB. We also highlight the importance of mental health with BoB's 24/7 helpline and The Big Brew initiative, providing a safe space for tradespeople to talk when they need it most. Get a glimpse of our behind-the-scenes as we visit Band of Builders for production, film some amazing interviews, and bump into some familiar faces. Plus, our CEO Lee Wilcox shares an exciting hint about the BIGGEST project we've ever done... stay tuned, because you won’t want to miss what’s coming next!
