Heidelberg Materials has been a Corporate Patron of CRASH since 1999, underpinning each charity construction project CRASH delivers. Heidelberg Materials is part of the CRASH \u2018Car Park Task Force\u2019 and has generously donated product and expertise to projects needing their help. <\/strong><\/p>\n

As part of their learning and development offering Heidelberg Materials run a \u2018Creating Engaging Managers\u2019 (CEM) course for colleagues. The course contains five modules from building trust in teams, communication skills and overcoming challenges. For the last three years the teams have been required to complete a project with a fundraising twist, mentored by the CRASH team for advice on fundraising best practices.<\/p>\n

The aim of the project is to bring together the learnings of the course whilst deciding on and delivering a fundraising activity or event to raise funds and awareness of CRASH across the business.<\/p>\n

This year the teams took different approaches. Team A organised and completed a 63mile walk from the Heidelberg Materials head office in Maidenhead to CRASH\u2019s former location in Chiswick. They played to their strengths, allocating roles for hotel bookings and logistics, equipment and all-important tea-making and refreshments. The team stopped off at various Heidelberg Materials sites, and enjoying the conversations they had with colleagues they wouldn\u2019t usually connect with, along the way.<\/p>\n

CRASH\u2019s previous office location in Chiswick marked the finish line. Hannah and Eloise were there to cheer on the team as they completed their 3-day hike and offered a well-needed energy boost in the form of protein bars, generously donated by TRIBE to give as a thank you to fundraisers.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
