A huge shout-out to our Midlands-based Quality Inspector, Waqar Azeem, for his outstanding dedication and hard work at Vistry Group’s Innovation Centre at Vistry Works in Bardon. Vistry Group's Technical Innovation Coordinator, Jenny Hsu, had high praise for Waqar: "On top of his required work, Waqar was kind enough to take on additional tasks when asked. His efficiency and commitment were key in ensuring everything was ready ahead of an important visit the next day. Waqar’s willingness to go the extra mile truly made a difference, and his hard work didn’t go unnoticed. Please pass on our thanks to him—he was a great help!" Waqar, your dedication and can-do attitude are an inspiration to us all. Thank you for rising above expectations to make sure everything was perfect! #EmployeeExcellence #CustomerSatisfaction #Teamwork #ClarksonEvans

We had an absolutely magical time at the Clarkson Evans Children's Christmas Party last weekend! More than 160 children came along to enjoy a fun-filled afternoon of festive entertainment. From entertainer Marky Jay keeping everyone laughing and dancing, to the stunning face painting and balloon creations, the day was filled with fun and joy. The kids were thrilled to meet Santa and Mrs. Claus and receive their presents, and there was so much more festive cheer to be had! Huge thanks to everyone who came along and made this event so special — memories like these will last a lifetime! A special thanks to Hatherley Manor Hotel & Spa for hosting our party along with Sweet Bro, Cheltenham Face Painting, Lucy Lost-it, The Ultimate Party Shop Ltd, Gloucestershire Photobooth Hire, entertainer Marky Jay, and of course our wonderful team of volunteers who helped make it a magical day for all. #ChristmasMagic #ClarksonEvans #HolidayFun #FamilyMemories #FestiveJoy

What an unforgettable day we had at the races! The ‘November Saturday’ saw over 350 of our Clarkson Evans team from around the country descend on Cheltenham Racecourse for a well-deserved early Christmas celebration. It was a wonderful opportunity for everyone to see some new and familiar faces and let our hair down after a very busy few months. We had a brilliant day out and it was a great chance for us to be able to say thank you for everyone’s hard work over the last year.

With the Government having set a target to build 1.5 million homes in the next five years, we’re proud to play our part as the leading electrical and solar PV subcontractor in the sector. In the last month alone, we’ve wired 1,580 new homes and installed solar panels for 1,160 properties. We’re planning ahead for a busy 2025 and beyond and investing in developing the future workforce the industry needs, having hired 143 new apprentices in 2024. We’re excited to play an important role in responding to the housing shortage and will continue to work alongside developers to create homes that are not only modern and energy-efficient, but also built to last. #construction #electrical #solar #clarksonevans
