Adam Williams has joined us this week as a trainee Site Manager. Adam will be trained through our extensive training programme over the next 12-18 months where he will work in different aspects of the company.
Adam has a background through college in Civil Engineering, but has also spent time in the Army. On leaving the Army, he decided to head back in to Construction, where Mannings are pleased to assist him through his training and further his experiences.
Manning Construction received our annual certificate showing our on-going support for the Royal Welsh Regiment
As a challenge, Manning Construction decided to join in the Children in Need Rickshaw challenge, to cycle (within the reception area) to BBC Broadcasting House in London, a total of 126miles.
We drafted in all personnel who felt they could do 1 mile or 20 miles, and all did their part in achieving this total. When nearing the 126 miles, early on the Friday morning, it was decided to cycle back also!
A total of 423 miles were cycled and a FANTASTIC total of £820.05 was raised for Children in Need
Manning Construction take part in the Macmillan Coffee Morning every year.
2018 was no exception, where we were donated some beautiful home made and shop bought cakes and savouries.
We made a wonderful donation of £135.25 to Macmillan.
We were working with CBRE at the time in the DVLA in Swansea, where they organised the event in Memory of Thomas Hopkins.
The money raised is being donated to the Lymphoma Leukaemia Myeloma Fund.
Manning Construction, along with 2 of our carpenters, Chris Evans and Ben Mason, assisted with a project at Ponthir Church in Wales School.
The school had an old container which was a bit of an eyesore, so Chris and Ben spent a long hot weekend, covering the unit, with the Materials supplied by Manning Construction,
then made a water game on the front for the children to use.
Manning Construction Ltd were put forward for the Bridgend County Borough Council ‘Building Excellence Awards 2017’,
for the Best Small New Housing Development for the three detached executive style houses in Bridgend.
These houses were built on a former brownfield site at the old Glanogwr Offices on Glanogwr Road.
The project was a standard construction with quality in mind, and finished to the highest standards.
The internal layouts and design have a contemporary feel with clean lines and finishes, and provides for a high class living environment.
We were awarded first prize for the development, and presented with an award in a ceremony within the Mayors Chamber.
