One Manchester Resident, Jimmy Collins, recently bought chocolates for the Emanuel Whittaker team to say a big thank you for his newly fitted kitchen and bathroom replacements!

Jimmy has really enjoyed the company whilst the works have taken place at his home, and he is so pleased with the finished results.

Puuurfect Result!

Emanuel Whittaker are currently working on a window and door programme with Great Places. During the initial survey stage, Resident Liasion Officer, Sarah Kershaw and Site Manager Phil Taylor visited a lady in Radcliffe, who they later reported really needed additional support.

The flat was in a very poor state, dirty and lots of flys, as well as clutter and hoarding which would need moving prior to fitting new windows. Kathy at Great Places arranged to do a joint visit with Sarah at Emauel Whittaker, which led to them having deep concerns for this resident’s mental health.

Sarah and Kathy went shopping to buy cleaning products, as well as some chocolate for the resident and cat food for the resident’s cat, they then started cleaning the flat whilst windows were being fitted.

Outcome: Customer now has a decluttered, clean home with brand new windows. She is getting financial support from Great Places, as well as a new mattress and help from the NHS!

Thank you to everybody who helped towards this fabulous outcome!

Another happy customer (and kitty)!

Cycling Success

Whilst Emanuel Whittaker have been working at Alexandra Park for One Manchester, they have struck up a good relationship with a charitable organisation called “THE BIKE HIVE”, who are also based in the park.

For many years, The Bike Hive have been giving the people of Moss Side and the surrounding areas the opportunity to come to Alexandra Park and use one of the many bikes available. They cater for all ages and abilities, even offering specially adapted bikes and aim to get anyone onto a bike.

Ian, Carroll, Neil, Paul and the rest of The Bike Hive team also maintain and run workshops to show people how to look after and fix their own bikes.  Emanuel Whittaker are always at hand to help and have even been known to go on bike rides, to offer their support.

The Bike Hive is a nonprofitable organisation and providing this service to the local community relies on charity, so all of The Bike Hive team are volunteers and give up their own free time.

Emanuel Whittaker thought it would be a nice gesture to make a donation to help keep this lovely service, which benefits the local community.
