Liz attended Building London & South East Commercial’s Charing Cross site in Central London and received a presentation on the subjects of our wellbeing aims, and the key challenges that we face in our industry.
Vikki Skene, HR Director for Galliford Try, commented: "We were delighted to be able to host Liz at our Charing Cross Road site and demonstrate to her the work we are undertaking across our business to improve mental health and wellbeing for our people.
"Mental health issues continue to gain prominence in the construction industry and rightly so after many years of concerns being brushed aside. As a business we are determined to play our part in making sure this remains at the top of the agenda and people are able to receive the help and support they need."
