Sofa Sorted
Jul 12, 2023
Kathleen is a new PNWHA resident at Rectory Green, and had a bit of a problem when moving in, as her new sofa wouldn’t fit through the door.
Luckily Emanuel Whittaker were due to fit new windows that week.
So, as soon as the existing lounge window was removed, Emanuel Whittaker Joiner, Mick Crossan, and Sovereign Window Fitter, Alan May, safely delivered Kathleen’s sofa directly through the window opening and in to place in Kathleen’s lounge.
An over the moon Kathleen has since popped in to the Site Office with a large tray of pastries, as a thank you!

WCHG resident, Mike, recently had his new Fire Door fitted by Emanuel Whittaker.
Mike asked if he could take the letter box and a few other parts off the old door. Mike told us that he was sending them to Nigeria, so that people there could have the opportunity of door security.
Emanuel Whittaker Site Supervisor, Marc Woodall, was more than happy to help Mike take the fittings off the old doors.

Keep It Clean!
Jul 12, 2023
Emanuel Whittaker have recently set up a Site Compound for a new job in Longsight for Great Places.
The site compound is suffering with fly tipping and anti social behaviour on an evening and weekend.
Emanuel Whittaker Resident Liaison Officer, Neil Lancaster, decided to have a good clean up around the site.
The residents are really pleased that the area is now clean and tidy!

First Aid Provided…
Jul 12, 2023
First Aid assistance provided at Rectory Green –
Emanuel Whittaker Joiner, Mick Crossan, found PNWHA resident, Michael Probert collapsed in his vehicle. An ambulance was called, by covering Site Manager, Paul Robinson, while Michael was kept warm and reassured and his head supported by Mick, Paul & Resident Liaison Officer, Garry Holt, until the ambulance arrived.
The Site Team then went on to move Michael’s van into a safe parking space, they liaised with Michael’s partner and returned the van keys to his property.
A text was received from Michael’s partner, Jackie, over the weekend which read –
“I just wanted to thank you for your help on Thursday, finding Mike in his van and ringing the ambulance. I Think you saved his life. I can’t thank you enough for moving his van too. He is still in hospital and getting the right treatment. Thank you!”
Along with another text several days later, letting us know that Mike is still in hospital awaiting a triple heart bypass!
This was followed by a visit to site by Mike’s brother, Stephen, to thank the team personally.
We are all wishing Mike a speedy recovery!
