Supporting The Air Ambulance Service with Essential Car Park Upgrades

Supporting The Air Ambulance Service with Essential Car Park Upgrades

Danaher & Walsh supported Air Ambulance car park upgrades at The Air Ambulance Service’s Hangar Charity Superstore in Melton Mowbray. The works helped improve safety, access and usability for visitors, staff and volunteers.

Our team worked alongside Galliford Try and its delivery partners to complete targeted civils improvements. Together, the project team helped enhance an important community facility that supports lifesaving work across the region.

Improving Safety and Access

The charity’s existing car park had deteriorated over time. As a result, the uneven surface created challenges for people using the site.

Danaher & Walsh helped resolve these issues through a focused package of civil engineering works. The team improved the rear car park and helped create a safer, more accessible environment.

Targeted Civils Improvements

The improvement works included:

• Resurfacing and levelling the rear car park
• Creating a smoother and safer surface
• Repairing potholes
• Reinstating damaged access routes
• Supporting a coordinated upgrade across the site
• Providing specialist civils expertise as an SME subcontractor

These works helped improve the day-to-day experience for the charity’s visitors, staff and volunteers.

Supporting a Valuable Local Charity

Although our formal Social Value Employer Levy contribution for this project was £50, the wider community impact was far greater.

The upgraded car park now provides safer access and a better visitor experience. It will also help reduce future maintenance pressures for the charity.

Most importantly, these improvements support The Air Ambulance Service as it continues to raise essential funds for its lifesaving work.

Delivering Social Value Through Local Projects

This project reflects Danaher & Walsh’s commitment to delivering meaningful social value.

By working with Galliford Try and its delivery partners, we supported a local improvement project that will benefit the charity and the wider community.
