Thank you to everyone involved for giving up your time to important causes. By working together we can  create a lasting positive legacy we can all be proud of.

Our Social Value Manager, Sarah O’Mahoney held two virtual CV and interview workshops for T-Level Students at Sheffield College and University. The college were extremely grateful for sharing valuable insights with students to help them create standout  a stand out CV.

Sarah has gone above and beyond to support our T Level students, Her session emphasised how crucial the first 15 seconds of a CV are in capturing an employer’s attention, a lesson that will undoubtedly stick with our students. Thank you, Sarah, for your time and dedication to helping shape the next generation of professionals! 👏

Chris Grimes and Zach Pears, working in our Environmental team used their volunteering day to help rebuild Langford Lakes Nature Reserve’s education shelter for Wiltshire Wildlife Trust.

A recent storm damaged the shelter, which is for the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust’s (WWT) Youth Education and Wellbeing (YEW) program for children aged 5-18. Our team stepped into action to help rebuilt the vital educational space donating over £700 worth of equipment and spent a day helping to construct the shelter.

You can read more about how our team helped to restore the vital education space for Wiltshire Wildlife Trust.

A big thank you to the Octavius Environmental team or supplying materials and labour so that our education shelter can be used again
