Construction firm Willmott Dixon has become a company supporter of the construction industry's very own dedicated charity, The Lighthouse Club.
The Lighthouse Club provides emotional, physical and financial wellbeing support to the construction community and their families.
Willmott Dixon's support will further strengthen the charity’s important role protecting the wellbeing of people who work in construction. This includes providing a 24/7 helpline offering free support on physical, emotion and financial wellbeing, 350 Lighthouse Beacon support groups for people to socialise, talk and share concerns, plus training sessions including wellbeing masterclasses.
Willmott Dixon's chief health, safety and environmental officer, Mark French, said: "The Lighthouse Club gives our people, supply chain partners and their families direct access to its services in addition to Mental Health First Aid England accredited training courses and wellbeing masterclasses.
"It's a natural step as we have had a long-standing relationship with the Lighthouse Club, supporting them with numerous donations, fundraising events and using many of their inspirational speakers for our All Safe conferences and safety health and excellence awards dinners.
"We also worked together when setting up the 'Building Mental Health' campaign for Build UK. This new official partnership offers many benefits and resources for the business, our people and our wider partners."
