DERBY, U.K. - eTradeWire -- Derby-based project managers, construction cost consultants, and building surveyors Armsons Barlow are celebrating a milestone year of charitable giving and have unveiled Derby County Community Trust as their 2025 Charity of the Year.

At the start of 2024, the firm reaffirmed its commitment to corporate social responsibility through a variety of initiatives, including raising £2,700 for its 2024 charity partner Derby Food 4 Thought Alliance at its Charity Golf Day.

As well as organising this event, the team took part in other charity golf days hosted by Clowes Developments, Rodgers Leask, and the RICS, and also sponsored a hole at the YMCA Golf Day.

The firm's efforts have extended beyond sporting events, and they have supported charities like Safe & Sound by providing Pro Bono services to further their mission of safeguarding vulnerable individuals. They took part in the Derbyshire Brain Game and support the Friends of Derby 500 Club, an initiative which helps community projects.

Three team members volunteered with Over the Wall, a charity providing transformative experiences for children and young people with health challenges and disabilities.

The firm also teamed up with engineering consultancy Jackson Purdue Lever to organise a Harvest Festival Food Drive in support of the Derby Food 4 Thought Alliance and have just supported the Christmas Jumper Day campaign, raising funds for Save the Children.

Armsons Barlow has now announced Derby County Community Trust (DCCT) as its Charity of the Year. The charitable arm of Derby County Football Club, the Trust is dedicated to improving lives and communities through sport, physical activity, health, and education.

Later this month Armsons Barlow will be partnering with the Trust and Clowes Developments to host the inaugural Construction & Property Padel Cup and Networking Event at We Are Padel.
