🌱We’re creating green spaces to support veterans to grow. We are really proud of our North East team for their work with LaunchPad, a charity dedicated to supporting armed forces veterans transitioning into civilian life. Graeme and Paul from our aftercare team volunteered their expertise to create a new, accessible space at Launchpad Veterans’s Hollyacre House in Durham. Their efforts in providing a sub-base have paved the way for the installation of a greenhouse, allowing residents to engage in gardening and grow their own fruit and vegetables. Steve Dodd, assistant manager facilities at LaunchPad Veterans, said: “We have decided to name the area ‘Kier Corner’ in recognition of the continued support and hard work the Kier team has put in once again to assist LaunchPad at Hollyacre House. “It's great to look at and has transformed the function of what was a difficult-to-use split-level space. The new, larger levelled area will allow us to install a large greenhouse. This will really help the residents to engage in outdoor activities with the additional benefit of reaping the rewards of the fruit and veg they will be able to grow.” Well done to everyone involved! #KierNorth #VeteransSupport #CommunityProjects #GreenSpaces #Sustainability

🔊 How can we reduce carbon in pre-cast concrete? Yesterday we co-hosted a round table to explore this challenge. Alongside PCE Limited, we gathered a group of specialists from the DfMA precast concrete construction industry and wider MMC, concrete and built environment carbon reduction groups to collaboratively explore and promote strategies for reducing the embodied carbon in large scale future construction projects. The discussion was expertly led by Elaine Toogood, from The Concrete Centre and our outcome was an agreed action plan with clear next steps on implementing carbon reduction measures, working collaboratively with all stakeholders to share initiatives which will contribute to achieving net zero targets.
