JSP SUPPORTS CONSTRUCTION
INDUSTRY HELPLINE JSP has donated £13,461.00 to the Lighthouse Club, a charity which provides financial and emotional support to the construction community and their families. The money was raised from sales of JSP’s Lighthouse range of safety products.
JSP is a passionate supporter of the Lighthouse Club and for every product sold in the UK from this selected range of personal protective equipment, JSP makes a contribution to support the Construction Industry Helpline.
The donation will help towards promoting and supporting the Helpline which provides confidential, 24-hour support and advice for
construction workers and their families on any problems they are facing, including occupational health and wellbeing, mental health, or financial difficulties caused by accident, illness or bereavement.
Mark Johnstone, CEO of JSP Ltd presented the donation to Bill Hill, CEO of the Lighthouse Club at the annual JSP & Team at Heathrow Construction Industry Charity Pro- Am Golf Tournament, which took place at Foxhills Golf Club, Surrey.
Mark commented: “JSP has been a long-term supporter of the Lighthouse Club Charity and we are delighted to make this donation and support those in need in the construction industry, not only for financial support but also providing a lifeline to those who need support with mental health issues and the day to day stresses of working within this environment.”
Last year, the Construction Industry Helpline supported more than 1500 construction families in crisis and over 400 families were granted £705,000 of emergency financial help. Of the 1500 callers, 1100 of these were given advice and support on issues ranging from stress and depression to legal, debt management and taxation advice.
