From litter picking in Wetherby through to planting trees in Doncaster, Lovell Partnerships has been giving back to local communities as part of its 50th birthday celebrations.
The #BigLovell50Challenge saw teams across the country commemorate 50 years of partnerships through 50 days of volunteering, supporting the communities that they helped to build.
In Hull the team donated two benches to the Bayswater flats, created by the teams joiner, as well as did some litter picking and jet washed the newly renovated patio area constructed by Lovell’s Subcontractor. In Kirk Ella, Lovell’s joiner helped provide a much needed storage space to their boiler room at the Springhead Football Club. The team also helped to paint the outside storage unit and litter picked around the football field.
Robert Adams, regional managing director at Lovell, said: “We have been building homes for half a century, which is something we’re very proud of, and we wanted to celebrate this milestone by giving back to the communities we’ve nurtured over the past 50 years.
“It’s been great to see the different teams come together with their local area, finding individual and interesting ways to contribute and make their mark. As a company that prides itself on creating communities, we like to ensure our team is an integral part of the areas they work in and look forward to continuing this over the next 50 years.”
Employees also walked, ran, cycled and swam 50 miles, to raise money for Lovell’s nominated charity, Centre Point raising more than £5,000 for the organisation.
Robert added: “We’re thrilled to have been able to raise such a significant amount of money for Centre Point, which does such an important job in helping homeless young people get back into accommodation and education. The charity has an ambitious target of ending youth homelessness by 2037 and we’re proud to be able to say that we’ve made even a small contribution to this goal.”
