From everyone in the Iveagh House site team, we hope you enjoy the festive break.

The team at Iveagh House have successfully achieved an impressive score of 43/45 from their recent audit visit by the Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS) earning them an 'Excellent' rating.

When the CCS monitor visited the scheme at the end of November to carry out their audit of the site, they commented things like "Overall, the site demonstrates excellent practices and performance across the checklist to meet the Code of Considerate Practice throughout the works. The team has established and maintained a good relationship with their local community and they are tracking well against sustainability and social value targets."

The CCS is an independent organisation founded to raise standards in the construction industry to ensure all construction sites present an image of competent management, efficiency, awareness of environmental issues and above all neighbourliness. Monitors from the scheme regularly audit our sites to ensure we are adhering to the scheme’s Code of Considerate Practice which is designed to encourage best practice beyond statutory requirement.

Each audit is split into three categories; respect for the community, protecting the environment and valuing the workforce each with a potential score out of 15 with a total combined max score of 45 available. To score above 13 in any category warrants an excellent level of achievement for that category.

Congratulations to Site Managers, Adam Melpous and Adam Holman and the rest of the site team, who work so hard every day to maintain such high standards

From all of us at Equans, we wish you a happy Halloween.

A children's activity pack can be collected from your Resident Liaison Officer. Alternatively this can be viewed and downloaded from our 'Documents Library'.

Please be careful if carving pumpkins and stay safe whilst trick or treating.
