Building Opportunities for Life Today (BOLT) Charitable Foundation’s goal is for young people to discover the construction industry and the many in- demand careers within, access training and education and gain experience and employment to start a career they are passionate about and can be successful in.

BOLT partners with The Hammer Heads Program – an intensive 12- week, in-person programme where participants receive skilled training in different construction trades, academic upgrading,  mentorship,  resume and exam support. 

Our donations to BOLT supported six under- resourced young people in 2020, six in 2021 and eight in 2022. All 20 are progressing successfully through their apprenticeships in sustainable and well-rewarded employment meeting the living wage and inclusive of pension and other benefits.
