200 pupils visit The Mount construction site

As the redevelopment of The Mount care home in Wargrave (UK) advances, Aedifica and Lawrence Baker Construction recently invited over 200 pupils from two local primary schools to experience the construction process firsthand. The initiative underlines our belief that meaningful developments should enrich not only the built environment but also the broader community.

During the visit, children took part in safety briefings, wore personal protective equipment, and enjoyed supervised hands-on activities exploring construction tools and techniques. Presentations explained the care home redevelopment process—from early design to onsite work—bringing the built environment to life in a child-friendly and educational format

“We’re proud to support this fantastic initiative by our build contractor, which offers local primary school children a unique opportunity to learn more about construction and the important role it plays in shaping our communities… It’s a privilege to help inspire the next generation by giving them a real-world insight into how buildings are brought to life.”

This initiative reflects Aedifica’s goal of creating not just high-quality care environments, but also lasting connections with the communities we serve.
