Last year we helped LS14 Trust fund their festive celebrations, including selection boxes, food hampers and entertainment for their Christmas party – and we’re pleased to continue our support in 2022 with a donation of £400!

The LS14 Trust is a community organisation dedicated to bringing about positive social change in Seacroft, Swarcliffe and Whinmoor.

Based in The Seacroft Pantry, a stone’s throw from Howard Civil Engineering’s head office in Leeds, they serve over 1,000 local members who share the same drive to develop activities and opportunities local community.

The pantry hosts a welcoming cafe, a digital lounge, a training room, hot desks, an art room, and a roof garden for people of all ages to meet, collaborate, and learn new skills.

The charity also hosts a variety of events, clubs and workshops including football matches, a youth café, and toddler groups.

Community development manager Joanne Curtis said: “We really appreciate the support from Howard Civil Engineering. Your donation will go towards our family Christmas Party and our two-day Christmas Special Community Pantry. We are all about local connections and working together to help our communities thrive. Thank you so much for your kind donation!”

Throughout December, Howard Civil Engineering is spreading festive cheer by donating £5,000 to a variety of charities and community groups across the north of England! We have chosen 12 different causes to help this festive period and we will be documenting these throughout the month using the hashtag #12DaysOfHCE.
