Builders Merchants Journal – BMJ Publishing to Builders Merchants and the UK merchanting industry for more than 95 years
City Plumbing, part of Highbourne Group, has supported the BBC’s DIY SOS programme with product donations worth more than £10,000 for recent big builds in Leicester, London, Southampton and its Children in Need special in Cheshire, The Joshua Tree.
The DIY SOS Children in Need special focused on The Joshua Tree, a cancer centre for children that currently offers support, respite and counselling for more than 300 families. Demand for The Joshua Tree’s offering is increasing, so the DIY SOS team came in to extend the facilities so the centre can accommodate more families.
The BAFTA award-winning programme reached out to suppliers, and City Plumbing has provided a range of products, including radiators, heated towel rails, boiler accessories and piping.
Darren Redwood, operations director at City Plumbing, said: “We were delighted to support the DIY SOS builds by providing a range of our plumbing and heating products from local branches in Lewisham, Leicester Progress Way, Crewe and Lymington for these worthy projects. Seeing the final results and the difference they will make to the families and communities involved is wonderful. We’re proud to have played a part in projects that will have such a positive and lasting impact on people’s lives.”
