Through this experience they have gained a personal and in depth understanding of our unique environment, and the challenges and opportunities they present.
To be successful in this space H&C prioritise planning and preparation, regular and transparent communication, and a positive attitude to working in with others to solve issues as they arise.
As a business we understand the landscape as a whole including how various organisations work in collaboration with one another. Keeping in mind the limited access to trades, and difficulty accessing various equipment and materials, project resources are utilised to benefit all local stakeholders to maximise on joint outcomes. At all times priority is given to providing employment and training opportunities for local community members.
