HPBC could not achieve success without the support of our corporate partners. 

We’ve had nothing but positive support from businesses and organisations at home and abroad, among them:

Sanctuary Group

Part-funding the build of 23 of our houses, supporting our training programme, have provided funds for new protective clothing and equipment and donated new IT equipment.

The 75 Engineers regiment of the Territorial Army

Helped build our road and lay our drainage as part of a MACC (Military Aid to the Civil Community) project, using materials supplied by Balfour Beatty and Birse Civils.

International construction services company ISG

Responsible for the high-profile Exhibition Centre Liverpool, has provided skills from its own team and also encouraged its delivery partners and supply chain to contribute with labour, materials and equipment. They’ve held several team-builds on site.

Heyrod Construction

Originally came to site for one of the ISG team-builds, have subsequently brought their own team along to do the concrete slab for a block of four homes.

Liverpool City Council

Its members and officers have supported our Kingsley Road project, acted as our ambassadors and helped us to access vital funds.

Hugh Baird College

Groups of second and third year Diploma students are on site two days a week, with supervisors, including trainee joiners, bricklayers, and painters & decorators. We hope to expand the partnership to include students in landscaping & gardening, media and other disciplines. The students get to practise their new-found skills within a real-life construction site and we benefit enormously from the work they do.

La Rochelle Business School and ESTP Paris

We’ve developed relationships with these institutions who regularly send volunteers to site.

UK housebuilder Redrow Homes

Their 2012 graduate intake helped us to create a marketing suite and viewing area as part of their community project.

 

French based energy company EDF

Just one of many companies to experience the camaraderie of helping to build our homes. Thirty employees spent five days working on our site learning a wide range of construction skills, including groundworks, landscaping, kitchen fitting, painting and decorating. The team-build was an integral part of the company’s commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility.

Opportunities to partner with us are many and varied.

Forget traditional cheque writing (although donations are welcome too!), we can provide a much more powerful proposition for your organisation’s CSR programme.

We welcome opportunities to work with organisations on a long-term basis and hopefully you’ll find that helping us can have a positive effect on your public profile, reputation and company morale.

As well as forging mutual relationships at a company level, your staff can take part in corporate team-builds, providing them with the opportunity to learn new skills, build new relationships and foster team spirit in a unique environment, while delivering extremely tangible results.

We’ll work with you to ensure that your support gets the recognition it deserves through public acknowledgement on our website, in marketing materials, media relations and, where appropriate, in award submissions.
