    This Christmas our Bolt Works site in Halifax, along with the client, Placefirst donated £2,000 to local charity, Happy Days who support and empower local people who are homeless or in crisis to live independent and purposeful lives. The donation was through their Big Give Christmas Challenge which saw Aviva match fund donations, therefore double the difference! 😊 A huge thank you to our amazing supply chain who helped us with this donation 👇 Keith Walton Brickwork Ltd, Howell Cummings Joinery, Emplas Window Systems, Smith Painters Ltd, B&K Systems Ltd and Compass Cleaning. Sharon Robins, Corporate Relationship Manager at Happy Days said "We are absolutely thrilled to announce that, thanks to your generous donation, we have hit our target of £10,000 in our Big Give Christmas Campaign! Even more exciting, this amount will be doubled to an incredible £20,000!   This £20,000 will go such a long way in helping those in crisis, those who are homeless, or on the verge of homelessness. Your kindness will provide much-needed support to individuals and families during these challenging times. Our service members, who will benefit greatly from your donation, are beyond grateful, as are all of us here at Happy Days.   Thank you once again for your generosity, and for making such a meaningful difference this Christmas. We wish you a wonderful Christmas and a fabulous New Year!" #PlacesForLife #CaddickCommunites #Charity #BreakTheHomelessCycle #LoveConstruction Caddick Construction Limited | Neil Murray | Andrew Clarkson

  • Community Lunch Success Story!  This week our community café menu featured an incredible donation of 150 handmade samosas from a wonderful and generous member of our community. 🥳🥟❤️ Our meal was a feast of flavours, beginning with a homemade curry brimming with fresh vegetables and halal chicken, generously sourced in partnership with the amazing Building Bridges charity in Brighouse. 🍛🍗🌿   This delightful curry was paired perfectly with rice, the handmade samosas, and flavourful seekh kebabs. 🍚   To top it all off, we indulged in scrumptious buns, lovingly baked by one of our dedicated volunteers. 🍋🍰    This event was a beautiful testament to our community's spirit and ability to come together to create culinary excellence for those in need. 🤝✨    If you have a special dish you love to prepare, we’d love to hear from you! Your culinary skills could be the highlight of our next community meal. Get in touch and let’s create another unforgettable feast! 👩🍳👨🍳🍽️    #CommunityCafe #HappyDaysHalifax #HappyDaysUK #TheGatheringPlace #Community #FeedingTheHomeless
