As National Apprenticeships Week draws to a close, it’s a fitting moment to reflect on the pivotal role apprenticeships play in nurturing talent and plugging the skills gap.

Here our Sam and Joel, our apprentices – two of our greatest assets and key to our continued success.

As we continue our journey to revive the timeless beauty of The Harris Building, here are our team, with meticulous care and superb craftsmanship, applying the golf leaf to the building’s letters. They have done a wonderful job of rejuvenating the building’s exterior.

We were appointed to restore the stocks at Grade II listed Woodplumpton Church. The left hand side post was cracked and so we extracted, carved a new base and spliced it to the old top. The timber stock was rotten and so we incorporated a new piece of oak, supplied by the parish.

It’s National Apprentice Week – a celebration of what apprentices bring to organisations like ours. By hiring apprentices we've been able to develop a sustainable talent pipeline whilst simultaneously allowing individuals to expand their knowledge and hone their talent. Win/win!

[Bullen Conservation @BullenCons]

Team Bullen commenced work on Grade I listed Harris Building this week. Appointed by main Contractor Conlon Construction, Bullen Conservation will be undertaking external restoration works, inc cleaning, pointing and masonry repairs, which form part of a £14m renovation project.

We hope you all have wonderful festive season and happy New Year 🎄

Fantastic to see the team involved in the conservation project at Astley Hall recognised for their incredible work. The workers that helped restore the beautiful building to its former glory have had their names etched on a glass plaque that will sit on the side of the building.
