Earlier in the month we hosted a SkinAware Live webinar with a highly qualified skin cancer specialist nurse, educating our staff and raising awareness on the signs and symptoms to look out for, methods of prevention and what to do if you are worried about your skin. The health and safety of our workforce is always top of our agenda, and with the summer months underway, it's vital that we are doing what we can to ensure our workers are aware of the dangers of the sun and take all possible precautions.

With women making up only 13% of the construction sector, the gender gap is one of the most pressing diversity and equality issues in our industry. We believe that the best way to promote a career in construction for women is through role models on-site and in leadership positions. Over the last three years our Catalyst mentoring and development programme has played a huge part in enabling us to provide more opportunities for our future female site managers and leaders. We’re proud that 31% of our workforce are female - more than double the UK industry average – but there is much more to be done.
