👏 See the Impact of Our Work at Harpur Hill Primary School, in Buxton. 👏 We’re proud to share a short film featuring two great testimonials from Harpur Hill Primary School, where we recently completed the construction of two new classrooms and a purpose-built dance studio. This expansion allows the school to now offer two classes per year group and gives students a stunning new space to explore PE and the arts. The new dance studio, complete with mirrored walls and a sprung floor, was officially opened this month with special performances by Re:Bound Dance Collective, students, and a guest appearance from West End performer Kristian Cunningham. Working alongside Concertus Design and Property Consultants Limited, Derbyshire County Council, with procurement through NHS Shared Business Services.

Really pleased to share an update on our progress with the Procure Partnerships Framework "Project Green" initiative for the first quarter of 2025/26. It's been fantastic to get stuck in, and Stepnell has already made some great contributions: 🌳 1,100 trees planted! A massive thank you to our team who dedicated 16 volunteering days to get these in the ground at a Leicester Hospital. 🚗 Greener journeys: We're pushing forward with our Green Transport Scheme. This quarter, our electric and hybrid vehicles clocked up over 73,000 miles. We're continuing the transition, with 75% of the cars on our company list now being EV or Hybrid models. 📖 Investing in knowledge: While we haven't attended training sessions yet, our Social Value Manager has been actively involved in helping to develop the climate training materials for the program. We are also now officially working towards our Carbon Literate Bronze Level certification. A positive start to this important initiative, and we're looking forward to building on this momentum in the next quarter. #Sustainability #ProjectGreen #ProcurePartnerships #SocialValue #UKConstruction #BuildingAGreenerFuture

We’re really proud to celebrate 11 years of Liam King (MCIOB) at Stepnell. Liam’s post says it all — construction is full of challenges, but it’s also full of people who care deeply about doing a great job, supporting their teams, and delivering for clients no matter what’s thrown at them. Liam is one of those people. Thank you for everything you’ve contributed over the years, Liam — your commitment, integrity and leadership make a real difference. Here’s to the next chapter.
Well reflecting on 11 years since I first walked into #Stepnell. I've seen so many positive changes not only in our business but in the Industry as a whole. We all strive to do the best we can for our clients, to give them the best possible product and experience, no matter what life throws at us. From recession, COVID, material shortages, labour shortages, new legislation and effects of global issues such as war. We are an industry of problem solvers and innovators and no matter what the challenge is, we collectively put on our work attire and PPE and work the problem. #Stepnell have overcome, grown and challenged these issues and the collaborative effort of all of the teams involved in the business have made us stronger and I take immense pride in being part of that. In addition to this the might of the supply chain, consultant teams and clients who have consistently supported us and others to keep the wheels of industry moving. As an industry we should be proud of our achievements...so here's to another 11 years, whatever it brings. I know that as a team #Stepnell will always do our best to do the right thing and provide the best possible service we can...

Earlier this year we completed the refurbishment of the Spinnaker Building at the University of Portsmouth, turning disused areas into the Portsmouth Elite Athlete Centre (PEAC) – a cutting-edge Strength and Conditioning Gymnasium designed to support both students and elite athletes. Delivered within a live university environment, the project involved: ✔️ Major demolition and MEP upgrades ✔️ Structural modifications, including a specialist floating floor ✔️ Careful planning to minimise disruption to staff and students Now, students within the School of Psychology, Sport and Health Science can train and learn in a facility that mirrors real-world performance environments, thanks to a collaboration between Ridge and Partners LLP, Eleiko, Studio Four Architects Ltd and University academics. This is another great example of Stepnell’s expertise in complex refurbishments and education sector construction projects. 🔗https://lnkd.in/e6ViCwqz #EducationConstruction #UniversityRefurbishment

📢 Help shape the future of public sector construction – take part in vital ECI research! Stepnell is proud to support the Centre for Construction Best Practice (CCBP) as they launch a landmark study into the role of Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) in delivering better public sector projects. Already attracting early interest from central government, this research will build an evidence-based case for embedding ECI into future procurement – improving cost efficiency, programme certainty, quality, and sustainability outcomes. 🔹 Who should take part? All construction professionals with experience of ECI in public sector projects. 🔹 What’s involved? Part One – a short series of opinion-based questions. Part Two – project-level data to build a robust, evidence-based white paper. Participants will be acknowledged in the final report, which will be shared with government and industry leaders. 📅 Survey closes: 5pm, Tuesday 30th September 2025 🔗 Take the survey here: https://lnkd.in/ebZGEtCE Let’s work together to drive smarter, more collaborative approaches to public sector construction. #ECI #PublicSectorConstruction #ConstructionResearch #CCBP #EarlyContractorInvolvement #ConstructionBestPractice
