Social Value

Why Aura?

– We see a significant importance in social value and giving something back.

Social value is at the heart of everything we do. Community, Educational and Training benefits are treated as core deliverables for our projects, and we create long-term social value from the projects we deliver by integrating it into our overall project planning from the outset. Some recent examples of this are shown above.

We do this by forging mutually beneficial relationships by understanding the needs of local priority groups and supporting projects that bring lasting positive benefits to the local area. This is part of virtually all our projects, but is especially key on the Historically significant projects we are involved in. One such example is our live project at Moot Hall, Appleby, where we have set up an open day for Appleby Town Council & English Heritage, where we invited in local residents, business to see the proposed works.

We invited local school children to visit our site at Keppel’s column, Rotherham, where we showed them around the site and took advantage of the learning opportunities on site relating to different areas of the curriculum, including maths, history and science. We look forward to welcoming the children back to site as our works progress.
