Story


On the 20th May 2022 , 29 members of staff from our Yorkshire and NE Construction and SES staff  completed the TCV 125 Leeds Canoe challenge on the Leeds Aire Canal. 

The teams started the challenge at Castleford to Leeds (10 miles). All teams arrived safe and well at the finishing point as the Armouries, Leeds Dock at 4pm approx.

Leeds Beckett University - Carnegie Great Outdoors team were our  partner for the challenge.

TCV are delighted to be selected as Wates Charity partner. Its the final year of this fantastic partnership which aims to support and inspire Wates employees who are supported by Wates Giving, the charitable programme run by the Wates Family Enterprise Trust. Wates will work with TCV to help raise funds in support of the charity's vision of creating healthier and happier communities for everyone. It will also help TCV to extend its reach, to help transform more of Britains green spaces. Established as a national charity in 1959, TCV is an expert in leading volunteers in conservation activities, supporting people to create, protect and improve green spaces to benefit nature and the local community. TCVs conservation activities have always varied but its inclusive approach has remained consistent; as has its focus on bringing people and places together to create healthier and happier communities for everyone.
