In addition to our partnership with Career Links, Kingston Building’s team has been actively engaged in several fundraising events, such as Tour de Cure Australia and Walk 2 d’feat MND. We are pleased to have been able to raise over $13,000 for the Tour de Cure with the funds being donated to help beat Cancer and a further $3,000 from the charity walk, undertaken by 10 Kingston staff and their families, to help cure Motor Neurone Disease.
On the construction front, Kingston Building has been bustling with activity, boasting a robust pipeline of projects, including those in the industrial, education, and NDIS sectors.
We are excited about the future and look forward to building upon the successes we’ve achieved so far this year.
We are thrilled to share a significant milestone from our Brunker Road Over 55s Project. The scaffolding has been removed from the building, revealing the facade of the four-storey Oak Tree Group vertical retirement village. This is a great accomplishment for the project team as they have overcome significant challenges over the course of the project.
As we navigate the remainder of 2023, we remain committed to upholding the highest standards of excellence and community engagement. We deeply value the partnership and support of our stakeholders, and we thank you for being an integral part of Kingston Building’s journey.
