On the 18th March, Mulalley supported two events for our client Hackney Council.

The first was a Networking Breakfast organised by Hackney Council's 14-19 Team, aimed at fostering connections between local employers and schools. The initiative was hosted at the Tomlinson Centre, with the informal gathering providing an excellent opportunity for employers and schools to connect face-to-face, with the hope of developing meaningful partnerships that can offer valuable opportunities for Hackney students. The social value team spoke to over 20 local providers, discussing ways that Mulalley can provider employer support to their students.

It was then off to the DWP at Hackney Central where they are currently running a major construction campaign to promote opportunities in the sector, Mulalley had been invited to a dedicated Construction Sector Group Session alongside some construction training providers to provide insight into the industry, its current landscape, and the opportunities available. It was a busy room, with 45 participants keen to learn more about the sector. Our Head Of Social Value spoke to job seekers for 15 minutes and shared his perspective on the industry and future opportunities.

Mulalley is currently working on behalf of Hackney Council on Kings Crescent Estate, Marian Court and are currently on site on the Nightingale Estate, a design and build scheme comprising of a total of 72 homes for social rent located in a single five storey block. As well as the new homes and community centre, the regeneration will include the central Public Realm space, with improvements to the paving, lighting, play space and soft landscaping features.
