Lawton Tubes is proud to support the Band of Builders charity by donating £6,000 worth of materials to help complete a vital project for a family in need.
Band of Builders is a registered charity that completes practical projects to help tradespeople and their families facing life-altering circumstances, using voluntary labour and donated materials to transform lives through construction.
Recently, Band of Builders took on the project of creating a bedroom and wet room for Toby, a 15-year-old boy living with quadriplegic cerebral palsy and dystonia. Toby requires 24/7 palliative care, is deaf, is fed via a JEJ tube, and uses a deep brain stimulator. His mum currently has to carry him upstairs every night because their home was left in a semi-complete state.
Tragically, Toby’s father, Shaun, who was working to convert the downstairs of their home into a bedroom and wet room to better care for Toby, died on Christmas Eve, leaving the family devastated and the work unfinished.
The Band of Builders team has stepped in to complete the project, ensuring Toby can receive the care he needs in a safe, accessible, and comfortable environment. Lawton Tubes has donated copper pipe, end feed fittings, solder, and flux, enabling the team to complete the plumbing works essential for the wet room.
Shannon Stevenson, Marketing Manager, at Lawton Tubes, said:
“It is an honour to support such a valuable cause. At Lawton Tubes, we believe in the power of community and helping those in need. Providing materials to build something so meaningful, which can improve the quality of life for Toby and his family, is the least we can do.”
Robert Lawton, Director of Marketing and International Sales, said:
“We are inspired by the work Band of Builders does and are proud to play a part in this project. Supporting projects like Toby’s is exactly why we exist as more than just a supplier and copper tube manufacturer in the industry. We are part of the community and happy to help wherever we can.”
Band of Builders relies on donations, volunteers, and the generosity of businesses within the construction industry to deliver these projects, changing lives one build at a time. We encourage others in the trade community to support their mission in whatever way they can.
