Geocel has chosen the Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity (Lighthouse Club) as its charity of choice for 2021, with planned fundraising activities to take place across the year.
The Lighthouse Club provides emotional, physical and financial wellbeing support to the construction community and their families.
The charity also offers a variety of free construction focused training programmes to support the industry, including hour-long interactive wellbeing sessions, through to the Mental Health First Aider (MHFA) qualification.
As part of Geocel’s support, the Lighthouse Club’s helpline will be promoted on the company’s Mate range cartridges to raise awareness of its vital services.
Bill Hill, chief executive officer of the Lighthouse Club, said: “We are delighted to have been chosen as Geocel’s charity partner for 2021, and we are looking forward to working together. By promoting our charity on their Mate range, Geocel is helping us to reach out to the trades and spread the word about our charitable services to ensure that no construction worker or their family is alone in a crisis.”
Laura Hettenbach, senior trade brands campaign manager at Sherwin Williams, added: “It gives us great pleasure to announce that Geocel proudly supports the Lighthouse Club – The Construction Industry Charity. The organisation’s work is close to our hearts and in these especially unprecedented times it is our duty to do more.
“By raising awareness, we believe we can help reach those who really need the support and life-saving guidance provided by the charity.”
