Working Together for a Stronger Industry

Introducing our new charity partner:       The Lighthouse Charity

Supporting Our Industry, Supporting Our People

At Brymec, “Building for Tomorrow” means more than creating outstanding projects with cutting-edge resources – it means supporting the people who make it all possible.

That’s why, in 2025, we’re proud to announce our new charity partnership with The Lighthouse Charity, the only charity in the UK dedicated to the emotional, physical, and financial wellbeing of construction workers and their families.

Who are the Lighthouse Charity?

The Lighthouse Charity is the only charity in the UK dedicated to the emotional, physical, and financial wellbeing of construction workers and their families. They provide a wide range of vital support services, including a 24/7 confidential helpline, free wellbeing and mental health training, financial assistance to those facing hardship, and local community support networks.

Importantly, The Lighthouse Charity receives no government funding and relies entirely on the generosity of the industry and its supporters to continue its life-saving work. Their mission is simple yet vital: to ensure that no construction worker or their family feels alone during times of crisis.

Brymec and The Lighthouse Charity

At Brymec, innovation and progress drive everything we do – but building for tomorrow isn’t just about the structures we create. It’s about nurturing the heart of our industry: the people.

Every working day in the UK and Ireland, two construction workers take their own life.

We’re passionate about reducing this figure and building an industry which is stronger and more supported. By pledging to The Lighthouse charity, our support allows them to deliver their vision of ensuring no construction worker or their family are left alone in a crisis.

We encourage our customers, partners, and community to stand with us in supporting this incredible cause. Together, we can make a real difference.
