Charitable Support

Our desire is to give something back where we can and one of the ways in which we can do this is through charitable support. We have a long history supporting the Swanage Railway Trust and have recently helped them achieve a significant milestone in their ambitions (see Case Studies), as well as supporting the Anderson Foundation in their charitable work and most recently on their NAS school. Historically, we have worked as far afield as Burkina Faso, and are currently supporting some of our structural engineering colleagues at Packman Lucas with a site in the Himalayas. If you have a project or an enquiry that you think we could assist with, please contact us.

Our mileage from the office wasn’t as impressive but a fantastic opportunity to see the pro’s in action!
