Save a construction worker’s life today

Did you know that every single working day in the UK two construction workers take their own life, and that stress, anxiety and depression accounts for a fifth of all work-related illness?
That’s why the Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity has launched its new ‘Save a Life’ campaign and is reaching out to the construction sector to make a difference by pledging to make an annual donation and becoming a company supporter.
With funding, the charity can plan and grow its vital charitable work and ensure that its 24/7 Construction Industry Helpline continues to deliver the emergency financial and emotional support that our construction workforce and their families so badly need.
Bill Hill, CEO of the Lighthouse Club Charity, said: “We’re on a massive journey to change attitudes towards mental health and leading the way with the industry’s Building Mental Health programme. By ensuring that every one of our 2.1 million construction workers know where to turn to in times of need, you and your business can make a real difference to people’s lives and help eradicate these horrific figures.
“Change the life of a construction worker today by simply providing an annual donation of either £250, £500 or £1000. In return we will send you a pack of our helpline cards for you to distribute to your workforce and posters to display throughout your business and share your support on our social media channels.
“And if you pledge a £1,000 donation per annum we’ll say a great big thank you by including your logo on our website’s Company Supporter Page.”
