CRASH was honoured to be the chosen charity at this year’s Concrete Society Awards

The Concrete Society Awards are the longest running awards in the UK Construction Industry, and CRASH was delighted to attend the event in person, after a virtual event last year.

Concrete is the most widely used building material in the world and the black-tie event at the Royal Lancaster in London, showcases the very best use of concrete in construction and engineering projects.

It was great to see Corporate Patrons, including BAM, GetJar (Masterson Holdings) and Hanson behind some of the nominated projects.

A big thanks to all the guests who gave so generously on the night. Thanks to your support in the charity draw, you raised an impressive £5,050 for your industry charity, CRASH. These donations have supported the funding on CRASH’s recently completed Kairos Nunhead Lane project for homeless people.

A special thanks to volunteers from Corporate Patron, Beale & Co who helped with the collection. Donating your time is another great way to support CRASH. If you’re one of Corporate Patron companies and are looking for volunteering opportunities, then please do get in touch!

‘‘Congratulations to all the nominees at The Concrete Society Awards 2021 and a huge congratulations to the team behind the Crossrail Farringdon project for winning. Thank you to the Concrete Society for having CRASH as their chosen charity. The support from guest donations help CRASH to create places that care for people.”

“It was fantastic to have CRASH as our nominated charity for The Society Awards this year. At The Society’s very successful annual event, guests gave very generously to the charity draw, the proceeds of which will support CRASH’s worthwhile projects in the community. As both organisations are linked to the construction industry, The Concrete Society and CRASH are an excellent fit and we wish them well with their various projects that help the most vulnerable communities in the UK.”
