Working towards a safer construction industry for all

We provide grants to organisations for health and safety initatives and research that will benefit the construction industry and support employment within construction. Find out about our awards and partnerships.

Corporate grants for education and training

Education and training can help build a strong future for the UK’s construction industry and for the people who make it work.

Does your organisation support people with education and training in construction? Good news. You may be eligible for a corporate grant from B&CE’s Charitable Trust. We provide corporate grants for projects that either promote careers in the construction industry or lead to accredited qualifications.
