City Demolition attend NDTG’s Ex-Offenders Career Pathway Event at HMP Spring Hill

We were proud to attend the National Demolition Training Group’s (NDTG) ”Breaking Down Barriers” event at HMP Spring Hill, an initiative focused on creating real opportunities for ex-offenders through demolition training and CCDO certification.

Here at City Demolition, we believe in building a stronger, more inclusive industry. One where everyone deserves a second chance. The event gave us the opportunity to engage with residents, answer their questions, and demonstrate the real potential of a future career in demolition including some hands-on time with the simulator!

Thank you to the NDTG, the Ministry of Justice, and fellow NFDC members for making this such a meaningful and forward-thinking event. We’re proud to be part of an industry that’s not just breaking buildings, but breaking down barriers too.

City Demolition Lends a Helping Hand to Local Cricket Club!

As part of our social value commitment we were more than happy to offer our site team and machinery yesterday to dismantle the old clubhouse at Snyder Meadow in just 28 minutes to make space for the new sports and community pavilion

We were surrounded by local residents, Parish Council members, media from Stratford Herald and even our MP Manuela Perteghella who hopped in the cab. It was a great day to mark and a symbolic step toward the future!

“We are incredibly grateful to City Demolition for generously donating their services to our village. Their support in removing the old, unfit-for-purpose clubhouse is a vital first step in creating an exciting new pavilion for sport and community life in Welford. This generosity shows the power of working together, and it brings us one step closer to a building that will benefit everyone for years to come.”

Walk with Mates Fundraiser for Mates in Mind Charity!

To kick off our fundraising for our new corporate charity partnership with Mates in Mind, Our Contracts Administrator Louise organised a fundraising mental health walk on the morning of Saturday 12th October in Cannon Hill Park in Birmingham.

Through her own experience with mental health struggles, Louise felt inspired to organise this event not only to raise money for this wonderful charity but to use it as an opportunity to create a safe space for people to openly talk about their own mental health and to minimise the stigma which is still unfortunately attached to the this topic.

With the help of those who showed up and took part in the event and the many generous donations, we managed to raise £311.00 to go towards our City Demolition x Mates in Mind JustGiving pot! So big well done to you all!

Louise had this to say following the successful fundraiser,

‘’I just wanted give a thank you to everyone who joined me on Saturday for my ‘Walk with Mates’ mental health walk in support of our fantastic charity partners, Mates in Mind, your support and presence truly made the day special!

I came up with the idea to organise this walk in Cannon Hill Park in Birmingham to create a space for open conversations around mental health, while also raising money to help Mates in Mind continue their incredible work. Thanks to your generosity and participation we were able to raise £311.00 for our JustGiving partnership page!

I’m absolutely thrilled with how the event turned out! From the positive energy on the day to the encouraging feedback I’ve received since. It’s clear that events like this can make a real difference, not just for fundraising but for raising awareness and breaking down the stigma around mental health.

Given the success of this walk I’m already thinking ahead and excited to plan an even bigger and better one in the summer, so stay tuned for details, and hope to see even more of you there next time!”
