The collaboration aims to enhance the learning experience for students aged 16-18 by providing them with modern materials and equipment to support their training.
Through the partnership, Grayson has supplied the charity’s construction department with new equipment and materials, including those for cavity wall construction and other specialised techniques used on-site.
This is not a paywall. Registration allows us to enhance your experience across Construction Management and ensure we deliver you quality editorial content.
Registering also means you can manage your own CPDs, comments, newsletter sign-ups and privacy settings.
In addition to supplying equipment, Grayson is working closely with the staff at St Eds to keep them up-to-date on the latest products and techniques.
St Eds offers a range of courses and qualifications, including City and Guilds Multi-Skills Construction (L1), which allows students to gain skills in carpentry, bricklaying, painting and decorating, plastering, tiling and plumbing.
The charity also works closely with local schools to support students who find mainstream education challenging.
“The tutors are thrilled with the new resources provided by Grayson," said Heidi Duhig, fundraising manager at St Eds.
“These are tools and materials we wouldn’t typically have access to due to budget constraints, and they allow us to provide a more comprehensive and engaging learning experience for our students.
“Thanks to Grayson's support, we can now expose our students to a broader range of construction skills and knowledge, better preparing them for their future careers.”
Tony Higson, managing director at Grayson, added: “We are incredibly proud to support St Edmunds Society in their mission to provide alternative education and practical training to young people.
“By equipping students with the latest materials and tools, we are helping to create a solid foundation for their future careers in construction. It's essential that these students have access to the best resources, and we're delighted to be a part of their journey.”
