Who are Band of Builders?
For those of you who don’t know, Band of Builders is a charitable organisation that focuses on helpingconstruction workers in need. For an organisation that brings such joy and positivity they started out in the most tragic of circumstances. Keith Ellick, a close friend and colleague of founder Addam Smith, was devastatingly diagnosed with terminal cancer. Upon hearing this distressing news, Addam wanted to do anything in his power to help his mate.
The original plan was to landscape Keith’s garden. However, with the support of construction businesses and tradespeople from all over the UK this developed into a full-scale renovation of Keith’s house.
Lovely stuff, right? Well they didn’t stop there.
Since the first project Band of Builders has gone from strength to strength. BoB has taken on multiple projects and really made a difference to several people’s lives. One of the most heart-warming things is the numerous construction companies and tradesmen and women who have volunteered time as well as resources to make these projects happen.
But none of this is possible without fundraising. So, get behind the guys on the Three Peaks Challenge and donate or sponsor them today!
