Success stories

We recently commissioned Cawarden Co Ltd to demolish the underused multi-story car park on Birmingham Road as part of larger plans to create a new public plaza in the city centre.

Here are just four examples of the thirteen social value commitments that Cawarden are delivering as part of their contract:

  • Active communities - £500 in sponsorship has been given to the Elite Academy of Performing Arts (Lichfield) whose dancers are representing Team England at the Global Dance Open in the Netherlands in July. This sponsorship will help to fund the entire team’s kit and will cover the entrance fee for some of the dancers.
  • Green communities - 97% of materials will be diverted away from landfill. Materials will instead be repurposed, reclaimed, and recycled.
  • Prosperous communities - Site visits and talks will be offered to local primary schools to inspire young people to consider careers within the construction industry.
  • Confident communities - Cawarden will be supporting local community events.
