Willmott Dixon brings festive cheer to St Basils young people

Willmott Dixon Partnerships’ North Birmingham branch bought some festive cheer to Young women and their children staying at St Basils Mother and Baby project Trentham House in Acocks Green and another St Basils supported accommodation scheme in Kings Norton.

With the support of the repairs and maintenance specialist’s supplier Causeway, Willmott Dixon donated two Christmas trees and hand made decorations so the young people and their children could dress the trees. They also purchased, wrapped and delivered festive treats and Christmas presents to the young people living in the properties.

Willmott Dixon Group is one of the UK’s largest privately-owned capital works, regeneration and support services companies working with social housing landlords.

Shyeene Zaidibere, Willmott Dixon’s North Birmingham customer and community officer, said: “We have been working with St Basils to equip local youngsters with basic DIY skills and have been impressed by their enthusiasm for learning, and the way that they have welcomed us. This Christmas we were keen to give something back to the charity and the young people that they are working with, and help to spread a little festive cheer. However, it wouldn’t have been possible to do this without the kind support of our local supplier Causeway, who helped us to purchase the Christmas trees.”
