🏫🌱TRAINEE CHALLENGE: LOCAL COMMUNITY IMPACT 🌱🏫

Briggs & Forrester Engineering Services Midlands Technical Trainees recently took on a volunteering and community impact challenge – fully planned, managed, and delivered by them from start to finish.

Over the past few months, they’ve been preparing for refurbishment works at Forest Oak School in Solihull – a fantastic local SEN school supporting children aged 4–18.

From engaging with our supply chain to secure materials, to carrying out site visits and completing risk assessments, the trainees demonstrated real ownership and collaboration throughout the project.

Over three days, they were joined by colleagues to bring the improvements to life – sanding, painting, and transforming the school’s outdoor garden areas into a refreshed and welcoming space for students and staff.

Thank you to the following companies for your donations to this project:
✅Edmundson Electrical
✅Speedy Hire
✅Contact Electrical Wholesale Ltd
✅AkzoNobel

A brilliant example of teamwork, initiative, and making a meaningful difference in our local community 💪💚 Great work Jack Linekar, Katrina St John, Katie Kinsella, Samuel Merry, Lana Hill and Connor Hillas !

🏗️ BUILDING MOMENTUM AT THE GATEWAY LIVERPOOL 🏗️

Briggs & Forrester Northern Region have fully commenced the mechanical, electrical and public health works on site at The Gateway, Liverpool with significant momentum now visible across all blocks, as key first-fix installations advance including:

✔️ Vertical stacks nearing completion (Blocks A–D)
✔️ Ductwork and sprinkler first fix progressing
✔️ Hot & cold-water services now underway
✔️ Electrical containment and landlord wiring advancing
✔️ Apartment electrical first fix started on Tower A

This continued progress reflects the strong coordination on site, working alongside client and developer Legacie, and keeps The Gateway firmly on track as a landmark addition to Liverpool’s cityscape. As a mixed-use development, located as the centrepiece of the ‘Pumpfields’ regeneration zone, the development will consist of four New York inspired skyscrapers featuring a contemporary design.

Further updates will follow as works continue to advance across the development.

🏃 Run the London Underground lines (1,545.4km)

The event raised funds for the Mental Health Foundation, with B&F Living donating £100 in support of this important cause.

A huge well done to our colleagues who got involved, each completing a 30‑minute slot:
👏 Luke Felgate – cycled 21km
