We’re passionate about protection in every sense of the word. Our commitment goes beyond safeguarding construction sites with our industry-leading temporary protection solutions – we also care deeply about the wellbeing of the people who build them.
That’s why we’re proud to support The Lighthouse Charity, the only organisation in the UK dedicated to providing vital emotional, physical, and financial wellbeing support to construction workers and their families.
Why The Lighthouse Charity Matters
The construction industry is the backbone of our built environment, yet it also faces significant challenges. Long hours, demanding physical labour, and the pressures of tight deadlines can take a toll on workers’ mental and physical health. Alarmingly, statistics show that construction workers are at a higher risk of work-related stress, anxiety, and depression compared to other sectors. In fact, suicide rates in construction are disproportionately high, highlighting the urgent need for industry-wide support systems.
The Lighthouse Charity plays a crucial role in addressing these challenges by offering a 24/7 confidential helpline, free wellbeing support, and financial aid to those in crisis. Their mission is simple but powerful: to ensure that no construction worker or their family is left without help when they need it most.
Building a Better Future Together
We know that real change happens when businesses, organisations, and individuals unite for a common cause. That’s why we encourage our industry partners, customers, and suppliers to explore how they, too, can contribute to this essential cause.
Whether through fundraising, awareness campaigns, or simply sharing information about the charity’s services, every action helps build a stronger, healthier, and more sustainable future for construction workers and their families.
