Doing the right thing
The site team supported several social value initiatives and encouraged our supply chain to assist in delivering the programme.
Volunteers from the site participated in gardening exercises at three locations around Stockport, including renovating spaces at Suffragettes Square. The team helped at the initial clean up session of the square and donated materials to help with the regeneration.
The site team also hosted several of initiatives to support wellbeing, with an emphasis on mental health.
