Tilbury Douglas Northern division volunteers more than 200 hours & donates £10,000 to local charities
Tilbury Douglas, a leading UK building, infrastructure, engineering and fit-out business, has demonstrated its commitment to social value by volunteering an impressive 217 hours and donating nearly £10,000 in gifts to support charities and hospitals across its Northern division. This initiative is part of the company’s ongoing efforts to give back to the communities where it operates, focusing on areas close to its regional offices in Wigan, Castleford, and Livingston.
The beneficiaries of this generous effort included:
- Wigan Youth Zone – a vital space for young people in the community to engage in activities, develop skills, and receive support.
- Cash for Kids Mission Christmas Appeal – an annual campaign ensuring that children facing disadvantage have gifts to open on Christmas morning.
- PEEK Winter Warmers Appeal – an initiative providing essential winter supplies to vulnerable individuals and families.
The contributions from Tilbury Douglas included both the time and dedication of its employees and supply chain partners, who enthusiastically participated in volunteering activities, and donated nearly £10,000 worth of gifts aimed at spreading festive cheer and supporting those in need during the winter months.
The volunteering effort is part of the company’s “Give a Day of Your Time” initiative. Under this scheme, every employee is encouraged to use two days of company time each year to volunteer for a charity close to their heart. This initiative empowers employees to make a personal and meaningful impact within their communities.
This social value initiative underscores Tilbury Douglas’ dedication to going above and beyond in its community engagement efforts, ensuring that its presence in local areas contributes to meaningful change and support for those who need it most.
