On 5th June colleagues at our Head Office in Coventry celebrated World Environment Day with the launch of Joyful June, a four week programme of activities to raise awareness of both Cemex’s and our own environmental and sustainable activities.
Colleagues enjoyed a fantastic BBQ with delicious food served up on recyclable plates and cutlery. They took part in some fun quizzes about around water usage and sustainable actions, they built a bug hotel and launched a ‘build your own bug hotel’ competition and launched a Joyful June Always in Action app challenge to log their sustainable actions throughout the month. For Joyful June’s week two – Repurpose Week, colleagues donated an amazing amount of unwanted household goods, clothing and food to support Collaborative Women, The Air Ambulance, The Coventry Foodbank and a local school collecting plastic containers.
This week is Lend a Hand week and as part of a wider Cemex UK initiative, many colleagues from our Head Office, along with colleagues from across the UK, are taking part in volunteering activities. More about this in next week’s UK News.
