Stepnell and Constructing Excellence Midlands are committed to driving forward the social value agenda, ensuring that the construction industry not only meets but exceeds its responsibilities to society. By bringing together a diverse group of stakeholders, the Social Value Theme Group will champion initiatives that deliver tangible benefits to communities, enhance the environment, and promote economic prosperity.
We aim to facilitate an open forum for industry professionals to share insights, experiences and innovative approaches to social value with a central focus on recognising, reporting, and maximizing social value in all construction activities.
