Thanks to the community benefit clause we put into contracts, and our partnership with Robert Price we have been able to donate a van to TRAC2. We arranged for the new graphics to be fitted to one of our lease vans and have gifted it to the TRAC2 team, who do so much work locally supporting those in need in our communities.

We realise the importance of supporting local communities and that is at the heart of everything we do. We have set up a sustainable communities fund, which contractors who work with us contribute to, this money helps support our schools project, FACE and allows us to support our partnership schools.
