Sheds’ of success…

Sep 28, 2021

Members of Victoria Square asked if Emanuel Whittaker were able to supply some wood and help mend the dilapidated shed situated in the Award Winning garden at Victoria Square.

Emanuel Whittaker were more than happy to help.

However, when it became clear that there was no saving the old shed, Emanuel Whittaker donated a brand new one and also arranged for it to be erected.

The difference between the before and after pictures above, show the amazing end result.

The residents of Victoria Square are over the moon with this kind gesture!

Shelf help…

Sep 28, 2021

Great Places resident Tracy Byrne, was struggling to fit a shelf in her bathroom and asked if there was anything Emanuel Whittaker could do to help, so we sent our very own superman, Joiner, Chris Pomfret round, and in a flash Chris had fitted the shelf.

We now have one very happy customer and a bathroom that looks great!

Legacy Project

Sep 28, 2021

Northward Housing held a Green Day event on the 31st July at Exbridge Walk, Newton Heath.

Emanuel Whittaker has pledged to carry out Legacy Projects as a result of carrying out the Low Rise FRA project.

Our first legacy project was to work with the Community Garden Group at 19 Exbridge Walk.

The rear garden had become overgrown and the communal area at the side was unkempt with timber planters, lawns and shrubs in need of a little TLC.

Emanuel Whittaker Contracts Manager, Greg Martin, visited the site and agreed with Marlene at the Eco Youth Centre that we would clear the rear Garden area, cut back bushes, in effect re-claiming the garden whilst also improving the communal space ready for the 31st July festivities.

You can see from our before and after shots how successful the Legacy Project has been.

Since 2002, Marlene has run ‘Eco Youth’ – a group for local children to get involved with gardening and other activities, has worked closely with us and Northwards Housing on this project. Marlene commented – Thank you so much for the transformation of the community garden, we were able to hold a fun day on the green and the residents all commented on how nice it looks. We had approximately 150 attend, and a good time was had by all. Once again, thank you to Contracts Director John Gallagher and all at Emanuel Whittaker, as well as Scott and Mathew the gardeners from Bradley Green Tree and Garden Services.”

Happy Friday!

Happy Friday…!

Victoria Square resident, Mr Berry, bought Emanuel Whittaker Site Manager, Katie Lockwood a cake, not for any particular reason, just because he knows she loves it!

They chat every day, but as he cannot eat cake himself, Katie shared it out with the team on site.

Cakes for Charles Forbes Court

Aug 25, 2021

Works are due to start shortly at Charles Forbes Court in Warrington for MSV.

So Emanuel Whittaker Resident Liaison Officer, Neil Lancaster, has been busy carrying out pre-entry ‘Getting to Know You’ surveys. Neil has been helped by MSV’s very own Claire, who has helped enormously with access.

So as a thank you to Claire, and all the residents, Neil supplied them with some cakes for their upcoming coffee morning.

Claire and all the residents are looking forward to welcoming our site team to Charles Forbes Court when we start shower room replacements in September.
