Our 85th Anniversary Celebration
Our anniversary celebration brought together colleagues and their families, former employees, customers, civic guests, our event partners and family friends to celebrate this very important milestone with us.

We were honoured to welcome Brigadier Nigel Beacom QVRM TD VR DL, representing His Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant of Somerset; Councillor Richard Wilkins of Somerset Council and David Crew of Somerset Chamber of Commerce. The event was in support of Alzheimer's Society πŸ’™

Every scheme leaves an impression

RK Bell Projects has completed a footpath rejuvenation scheme for Abri at Deanesly Way, Wincanton.

With many elderly residents living along the route, the team programmed the works in sections so each area could be removed and reinstated the same day, helping to maintain safe access and reduce trip hazards.

The planning behind schemes like this is rarely visible once the surface is finished, but it makes a real difference to the people affected by the works. Good surfacing work is more than just the material laid, it depends on sensible programming, safe access, tidy working and the conduct of the team on site.

One resident was so appreciative of the team’s approach that they brought the gang bacon sandwiches, fresh oranges, cold drinks and ice lollies during the works. This response says more than any project summary could. It reflects the care taken by the team and the way the works were managed on site.

Across the South West, RK Bell Projects’ Surfacing Department has built long-standing relationships through consistent delivery, reliable service and a practical approach to programme and cost management.

Thank you to Abri for the opportunity to deliver the works and well done to the team on site! πŸ‘

πŸ“ΈBefore & after photos below. The first photo shows the resident’s thank-you spread. The ice lollies were not photographed, but were very gratefully received on a hot day! 🍊🍦🍧
