Our Ebsford employees joined forces with Avant Homes as part of their ‘Day to Make a Difference’ initiative back in June.
With the mission of supporting local communities and making a real difference to the lives of people who need it most, Avant Homes launched the scheme this year which was held on 12th June. We were honoured to take part in such a positive and scheme, working alongside fellow construction workers, sales advisors, apprentices and directors to give something back.
We had the pleasure of working with ‘Woolden Hill Primary School’ helping to improve their outdoor space. The schools pond underwent a full renovation and its surrounding area was planted with greenery to attract more wildlife for the children to enjoy. Also, a stunning flower bed in the shape of the school’s logo was created at the front of the school, welcoming parents, children and visitors.
Following the day, we received a letter of thanks from Headteacher of the school Sarah Sadler, making us extremely proud of the great team spirit we cherish here at Ebsford, “I wanted to say a huge thank you again for your support in your Avant 'Make a Difference' Day. Your team were wonderful and really worked hard from the moment they arrived to the last minute of the day (frantically planting flowers that had just arrived). From the first email, to the last car that left the site, your communication, professionalism and commitment to the project was second to none”.
Over 700 employees of Avant, as well as many suppliers and contractors took part in the initiative– some in person, others with materials or cash donations. With so many amazing schools, charities and local groups involved, it was a great day to be involved in and we were delighted we could offer our knowledge and expertise throughout the day.
