We’ve been celebrating Mental Health Awareness Week across the Group through a range of initiatives designed to encourage connection and boost wellbeing. This year’s theme, ‘Take Action’, reminds us that even small gestures can have a meaningful impact. It’s been wonderful to see everyone embracing the spirit of the week and getting involved with our internal initiatives:

💌 Our Compliments Cupid initiative encouraged employees to recognise and appreciate colleagues who have made a difference to their day or simply deserve some recognition.

☀️ At Head Office, our Send Some Sunshine cards gave people the opportunity to share handwritten messages of appreciation and positivity with one another.

☕ Several of our sites also hosted informal Coffee & Chat sessions, creating space for wellbeing breaks, open conversation, and connection between colleagues.

Mental health awareness doesn’t have to be about grand gestures, nor does it need to feel ‘heavy’. It’s often the small moments of kindness, appreciation and community (and cake) that make the biggest difference.

We’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who got involved this week!

On Monday 5th Feb, we will be hosting a live virtual Q&A session as part of National Apprenticeship Week 2024. A panel consisting of hiring managers, apprentices and HR representatives will be ready to answer questions and share insights on what makes a great apprentice, how to stand out from the crowd, and what to expect from an apprenticeship. You’ll have the chance to ask your questions directly to those in the know, and start building industry connections.

We have limited spaces left, so, please share with your networks or reserve your spot today by clicking on the link below.

Join us for an interactive virtual Q&A session with Gratte Brothers Group, celebrating National Apprenticeship Week 2024.

We’ve set ourselves the target of reaching net zero emissions by 2050.

To do this, we are pleased to announce the launch of our Journey to Net Zero. Partnering with carbon accounting engine, Normative, we have calculated our carbon emissions across scopes 1, 2 and 3.

What makes this approach unique is that many companies only consider their scopes 1 & 2 emissions when attempting to reach net zero emissions. In fact, Normative estimate that 91% of businesses don’t measure their emissions fully. To give you an indication of scale, scope 3 accounts for 97% of our business’s total emissions, and this proportion isn’t uncommon.
