Great Places joins Countryside Homes to Educate Pupils on Construction Site Safety

As part of our collaborative effort to enhance community well-being, Great Places recently joined Countryside Homes to give a presentation for pupils at Medlock Valley Primary School in Oldham, close to our Hartshead site, to shed light on the real-life dangers associated with working construction sites.

Great Places joined Countryside Homes and CPC Project Services, at the presentation to highlight the potential hazards found on and around construction sites, as well as how site operatives protect themselves while building new homes.

Commenting on the event, Mica Vanden, Assistant Development Project Manager at Great Places, said:

“Social purpose is at the heart of everything we do at Great Places, and we were delighted to come along to speak to pupils to talk about the real life dangers of a working construction site, particularly with our Hartshead site being so close to their school.

“We look forward to continuing our relationship as the project progresses and hope that our visit may have sparked interest in becoming the builders, surveyors and site managers of tomorrow.”
