Volunteers from VINCI Building UK's project team delivering the transformational regeneration of St Helens town centre have worked together to support The Standing Tall Foundation, a local charity which is providing Christmas gifts and toys for the most vulnerable families in the borough. An event held in a marquee at the Living Well Building saw more than 60 volunteers from a wide range of companies help wrap, pack and deliver over 2000 presents. These were distributed amongst 50 local schools identified as having pupils with the greatest need as well as homeless families, ensuring the most vulnerable children have something to open on Christmas day. #socialvalue #communitesmatter #humility #teamspirit

It Takes TWO

Solving the #housingcrisis is more than building new #affordablehousing. It also means supporting those who don’t have a home and those who are at risk of losing theirs. It means resources like landlord liaison programs, system navigation and encampment outreach services like those we provide through our Downtown Outreach Housing Resource Services office. Navigating the housing crisis takes all of us. Donate today. https://bit.ly/4ddH3n6 #NationalNonprofitDay

In hiring spaces you are helping young lives and familes recieve vital support. Often familes may have more than one child needing support. By hiring spaces you are helping the lives of Carers the people that they support and siblings. Children and Young adults need to feel they are not alone and can receive help for mental health concerns quickly, growing friendships with their peers, gaining confidence to cope with difficulty. By hiring a room vital funds raised help our children and young adults in our Community find confidence and feel less isolated. NHS can you hire a room ? Social services? Church Away Days ? Staff well being day, getting to know your staff AWAY DAY? Aprentership promotion by local businesses? Just a few suggestions and of course a great wedding venue in the barn. Please support if you can🙂❤️🙂 Local Photographic groups could you hold your annual photographic exhibition here? ❤️

Renovation work on the Good Shepherd Centre, a Keighley charity which empowers economically and socially disadvantaged people, is due to start soon. The charity focuses on health, education, pastoral care and well-being for those in need, as well as assistance with food, clothing, and household items. Its facilities at Presbytery House on West Lane are being modernised following a £140,000 grant from the Government’s #KeighleyTownsFund. The hall of the old building will be divided into two spaces, featuring fully refurbished triple-glazed windows, an energy-efficient heating system to keep the rooms warm, new lighting, and a brand-new floor.

Last week I spent a day helping Yorkshire Children's Charity to pack essential items needed by young children for the winter. £1 million was raised last year to provide new items such as coats, pjs, bedding, hats, gloves and more, which are now all packed and ready to be distributed to those in need. Here's what I learned that day: -Firstly, how fortunate I am to have these essentials and not have to worry that I will suffer from the cold this winter. These things can be taken for granted but I can't imagine how unpleasant sleeping without warm bedding or going outside without the proper clothing would be. -Secondly, team work. We worked as a group to organise the checklists, sort who collected the items needed and get as many school orders fulfilled as we could. Had we not worked together, we wouldn't have completed so much and the task would be far more tiresome. -Communication. After sorting multiple bags, it became tricky to remember what was needed and to tell the difference between each school group's collection of items. We made our communication as clear as possible for the most efficiency whilst motivating each other through it. Overall, it was a great day to help out and meet new people. If you feel like supporting Yorkshire Children's Charity to raise funds for providing these essentials next year, or to volunteer at future events, here's the link: https://lnkd.in/efudvMUH

Today is International Men's Day and the theme for 2024 is 'making a positive difference to the wellbeing and lives of men and boys'. Statistics reveal that males working in construction are three times more likely to die from suicide than males in other sectors. This is the shocking reality of our sector, in which males feel like they can't talking about their mental and physical health among peers. Alongside our sister company Neville Special Projects Ltd, we are committed to making a positive change for those men who are struggling, which is why we chose The Lighthouse Charity as one of our Charities of the Year for 2024. Lighthouse is the only UK and Ireland charity that provides emotional, physical and financial wellbeing support to the construction industry and their families. You can find out more about the Lighthouse Charity in the comments below. #InternationalMensDay #MensHealth #IMD2024
