About the sponsor

Morgan Sindall Construction is a UK Contractor with a network of local offices, including here in Hertfordshire’s Welwyn Garden City. Our purpose is to create inspiring places that enhance the communities in which we all live, learn, work, play, care and protect. Project capabilities cover the entire range of construction activities, from refurbishing and decarbonising existing buildings, to major new build landmark schemes delivered as standalone projects or as part of larger regeneration programmes. The company operates across the public and private sectors to deliver the social infrastructure around us – from schools, universities, hospitals, offices, and leisure and arts facilities.

Our vision is to be the most sought-after and sustainable business in our industry and locally here in the Northern Home Counties, strengthened by our investment in regeneration schemes that deliver long-term growth whilst leaving lasting legacies for the communities in which we work. With projects on site here in the county, including the University of Hertfordshire’s SPECS Building and Hertfordshire County Council’s first net zero carbon school, Buntingford First School. Sustainability and ESG are part of our DNA and takes centre stage as our purpose too.

The current climate emergency facing us all cements our commitment to supporting net zero carbon measures including zero waste to landfill, use of greener and more sustainable fuel and energy and improvements in air quality. We ensure all our project activities have a positive environmental impact. We will consistently challenge ourselves and our stakeholders to responsibly deliver low carbon, resource efficient and nature e-rich assets over the entire lifecyle, becoming the low carbon contractor of choice.

Our Social Value Strategy gives local people the chance to input into our projects, enabling them to help shape their communities. By providing apprenticeships, work experience, training and job roles, we offer real opportunities for local people to develop and upskill. We commit to working with local supply chain, SME’s and Social Enterprises. Our goal is to promote the economies in which we work, empowering them to take advantage of local opportunities on our projects. In the last 12 months, locally we’ve delivered £69m of proven social value in the last year and £1.6b nationally.
