One of our company values is 'We make a positive impact' and it's about being part of and supporting the communities we serve. A recent example is last month when we sponsored the Runcorn Community Youth Football Tournament as primary sponsors. The tournament saw over 60 teams and over 800 children take part. It raised over £2300 for a local hospice and we were pleased to have been there for the cheque presentation too. While giving something back to the community we were also able to take the opportunity to talk about the great work our team are doing on the Vyrnwy Aqueduct Modernisation Programme in the area. We are completing pipeline rehabilitation and updates which will help ensure clean drinking water for the local communities for many decades to come. #community #positiveimpact #givingback #team #water #utilities

Project Feature – Luton Service Reservoir We are working with our client Affinity Water on a new 20-mega-litre service reservoir in Luton. OCU is responsible for design, planning, project management, construction and commissioning of the project, which is scheduled for completion late 2024. Pre-cast panels are being used to reduce client costs and double handling, as well as decrease the number of plant movements and operatives required on site. Our approach delivers energy savings, alongside a reduction in CO2, NOx and SO2 waste, a brilliant example of our teams expertly delivering for the water industry. Hear from Daniel Robinson, OCU Group Project Manager and Phil Algawi, Affinity Water Senior Project Manager in the below video about the teams progress on site. #waterindustry #reservoir #water #utilities #customersatisfaction
