Tackling the UK homeless crisis with construction

A productive morning at Father Hudson’s Care with Caroline Gorman, Tom Belte (Crisis) and Aidan Munnelly to identify ways in which Zone Contractors can help to address the issue of homelessness within Birmingham.

At Zone, we strongly believe that there is a huge opportunity to positively affect the communities in which we operate all whilst lessening the impact of the skills shortage which has the potential to hinder productivity within the UK Construction sector in the coming years.

The CITB identified that the UK construction sector requires a surplus of 200,000 new workers by 2025 if the demands of the sector are to be met, it is crucial that we as labour suppliers proactively seek new entrees into the industry.
