Lovell and Placefirst support local man's Great North Run ambition

A long-held ambition will be realised this weekend by a Newcastle man who had a lower leg amputation, thanks to the support of Lovell and Placefirst. In the Northeast, Lovell is working with Placefirst to bring 146 energy-efficient new homes to #Benwell in Newcastle. But for Lovell, building homes is just the beginning. Driven by the belief that home is the essential foundation for people to live their best life, Lovell is committed to making a lasting positive difference in every #community it serves. That’s why, together with Placefirst, Lovell has supported the local charity Healthworks—most recently through a donation towards a sports wheelchair, enabling Paul Stephens to take part in the #GreatNorthRun. Paul, who had a lower leg amputation following diabetes complications, will now join the Healthworks team in the event, determined to complete as much of the half marathon on foot as possible. Paul said: “Running a half marathon has always been something I wanted to do, but life had other plans. Now, more than ever, I’m ready to take on this challenge—my way.” Our #partnership approach goes beyond construction, supporting grassroots organisations like Healthworks to improve #health, #wellbeing, and life outcomes for local people. This is just one example of how Lovell is committed to local #communities and collaborating to help individuals like Paul achieve their goals.
