The awards, created by ACM Environmental Champions, celebrate the work that businesses around the UK do to reduce the impact that they have on the environment.

Well done to our employees for their everyday recycling habits, and special mention to our cleaners for all their hard work.

Congratulations to our team at Wandsworth who have been awarded a Health and Safety Award by Galliford Try.
The Wandsworth Riverside Quarter project is a 13 storey tower of apartments and commercial units. The monthly award is based on a variety of criteria including complexity of works, number of operatives and Serious Safety Event Rate. They also selected a stand out operative for their particular focus on H&S – and B&F electrician Elvis Shadrawry was the lucky recipient! We’re not sure if he celebrated with a song though!
