A new initiative connecting service leaders and veterans with construction careers
A message from Caroline Logan, Buildforce
Following the success of the launch event at the Tower of London in January, our alliance is rapidly expanding and are excited to have a growing presence in the North. With over 140 Service Leavers and Veterans registered already, we need to know we have the opportunities and mentors in place throughout the United Kingdom to offer support and guidance.
We have now put plans in place to mobilise a Northern BuildForce Alliance to complement our Southern Alliance; the inaugural meeting is being held on 25th May 2017 at the KCOM Craven Park Stadium in Hull between 2 -5 pm. The venue itself has been provided free of charge thanks to the generosity of Hull Kingston Rovers RLFC and the Hull Kingston Rovers Community Trust as part of their commitment to the Military Covenant and of supporting initiatives that improve life’s chances of ex-Forces personnel.
We would like to enlist your support and ask you to reach out to any fellow construction companies, construction related companies and consultants, both large and small and encourage them to attend and become a part of our Alliance. We will be asking for your input, advice and guidance on the best ways to execute BuildForce, in order to maximise its potential across the industry.
Please confirm your attendance to info@buildforce.org.uk and forward to any interested colleagues.
A list of our FAQs and further information can also be found on our BuildForce website: buildforce.org.uk
You can also download our industry information pack which will give you more details about how to get involved.
Hope to see you there!
