It's that time of year when we reflect on the past 12 months. For us, it’s been a period of change, growth and achievement. Working alongside ambitious clients, exceptional consultants and dedicated subcontractors, we’ve delivered outstanding offices, higher education facilities and science and research spaces. None of this would have been possible without our talented team whose collaboration and commitment consistently exceed client expectations. Thank you to each and every one at Overbury. This year, we also raised the bar with our charity efforts, demonstrating our dedication to making a difference beyond projects. With bigger social value goals for 2025, we’re ready to build on this year’s successes and achieve even more. Thank you to everyone who has been part of our journey.

This festive season, we've been supporting communities in ways that really make a difference. As part of our annual support of the East London Business Alliance and The BIG Alliance Toy Appeal, our teams donated brand new toys for children in East London and Islington, helping ensure that every child experiences the joy of receiving a gift this Christmas. We also supported Save the Children UK with Christmas Jumper Day, with employees embracing the holiday spirit while raising funds for an important cause. At the Spring Community Hub, our team helped prepare Christmas Hampers by gift wrapping and hamper packing. In collaboration with Morgan Lovell, we donated 152 Christmas gifts to Bracknell Forest Council, supporting vulnerable children in their care. These initiatives reflect our ongoing dedication to making a meaningful difference in the communities we serve. Thank you to everyone involved for their generosity and hard work. #socialvalue #CommunitySupport #MakeADifference #ChristmasJumperDay
