O’Brien Charitable Trust (OBCT) has donated materials to the Stoney Stanton Scout Group HQ, Hinckley.
The materials were used for the foundations of the new fire escape that has been fitted to the Scout HQ. The new fire escape is significantly more robust than the previous one and will serve the club and the building for many years to come.
Tony Mitchell, Director at O’Brien Contractors Ltd, said:“We are pleased to see the improvements made and glad to have helped the Stoney Stanton Scout Group and its members”.

O’Brien were delighted to present a cheque for £4,000 to the Helping Hands Community Project this morning, as we continue to disburse the £30,000 raised in 2019 to good causes.
The Helping Hands Project is one which gets right to the heart of the community in Warwickshire, who work tirelessly to help the homeless and those less fortunate. This is a charity we have supported in previous years and we are delighted to donate to this great cause again this year.
HELPING HANDS COMMUNITY PROJECT
We believe There is always hope for a better future Everyone has a unique purpose It feels good to do good We’re in this with you for the whole journey These are complex issues
The Helping Hands charity is all about local people helping local people in need. The charity gives people the support and opportunities to feel better about themselves, be more active in the community and get back into work.
Hand Up
The charity run a soup kitchen offering hot food and a listening ear. They like to give a hand up not just a handout through new skills, experience and qualifications.
House 2 Home Project
The volunteers for their ‘House 2 Home’ project support clients with goods, from fridges to furniture to recently homed and low-income families. People are referred to the charity by organisations like children’s centres, social services & domestic violence charities.
When people are re-homed, they are often given a place to stay but not all essentials like a fridge or bed. The generous community provides these goods that volunteers deliver to those who need it. This helps turn empty houses into homes!
Gateway Café
They run the Gateway Café where people can find a lovely welcome, and where they can enjoy coffee and cake to support the charity in helping people find a better future.
The Big Sleepout
The charity has organised the big sleep out for 5 years, with the latest taking place last month. ‘The Big Sleep Out’ helps the charity give the homeless and vulnerable adults in Leamington, Warwick and Kenilworth the chance of a better future.
“A HUGE thank you to O’Brien who have presented us with a cheque for £4,000 for the second year running following all their fantastic fundraising efforts throughout the year. Their support in helping us to make a difference to local people in need has been phenomenal. Thank you
