In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Week (10 – 16 May), the Institute of Quarrying (IQ) is reminding members of the mental health and wellbeing support services that are available.

The company has helped give Grays Town Park in Grays, Thurrock, a new lease of life with a grant from the Tarmac Landfill Communities Fund.

The company has appointed Maarten van Roon as Chief Commercial Officer.

A successful volunteering partnership between Tarmac and the Peak District National Park Authority is looking to the future by agreeing a five-year extension.

The company has announced that it has acquired the freehold of the property at Huntsmans Drive in Teesside, UK, and can now confirm the start of commissioning of its UK based Subcoal production line.

The UK’s concrete producers will be represented for the first time in one trade association to help accelerate the industry’s journey towards beyond net zero carbon emissions by 2050.

Tarmac has committed to a 25-year partnership with the Port of Tilbury, London’s fastest-growing port, to build the UK’s largest construction materials aggregates terminal.

The club received almost £20 000 to complete the project which will make the building safe, warm and welcoming for those who use it.

Access to the visitor centre at Whisby Nature Park will be improved through a programme of work thanks to a grant from the Tarmac Landfill Communities Fund.
