This year, we joined up with Mates in Mind Mental Health Charity with the aim of improving positive mental wellbeing amongst our employees and more widely to address the stigma of poor mental health within the construction industry. 

To coincide with #WMHD on Sunday 10th October 2021, we have today issued a Wellbeing Pulse Survey to all employees to help us better understand the needs of our employees and to further improve our mental health support resources within Niblock.

We hope that other organisations will join us in checking in on their employees and take part in this interantional awareness event.

Today we are supporting Macmillan Cancer Support and their efforts to help those affected by Cancer with our #macmillancoffeemorning and bake off!
With a variety of delicious goods baked by our own employees for sale, we are helping to raise money for a very important cause.
Thank you to all our staff for getting involved for the sixth year running!

Our Business Development Executive, Katie Stallard has recently been appointed to form part of the first SEC Marketing Committee. 

Katie is one of ten people appointed from across the SEC’s Framework Service providers, each with professional experience that together will bring unique and important perspective to the group. 

The aim of the committee is to work together to raise the profile of SEC Frameworks in new and imaginative ways. The group isn’t framework specific and is looking forward to coming together to share creative ideas.

The first meeting is today, where the group objectives will be set and they will begin looking at the groups direction for the future.

To help raise awareness for World Suicide Prevention Day on 10th September 2021, we invited the Niblock team to light a candle and show their support. We are pleased to share some of the images sent in.

According to the Chartered Institute of Building, up to 26% of construction industry professionals thought about taking their life in 2019. These statistics need to change.

We recently joined up with Mates in Mind Mental Health Charity to improve positive mental wellbeing among our workforce and the wider construction industry.

It is important that we all work together to break down the stigma of poor mental health.

Poplar Works has been further awarded the RIBA London Award 2021.
A fantastic achievement!
