Craven Community Projects Group has received sponsorship from Tarmac Ltd. 

This invaluable support will enable the group to develop outreach work with volunteers in the district of Craven

Tarmac has a long and proud tradition of charitable and community support and is committed to helping and improving the communities in which we operate.

Our vision, mission and values
To be the first choice for building materials that meet the essential needs for the sustainable development of the world in which we live.

 Our Values

- Reliable
- Responsive
- Understanding
- Straightforward

Our values are not empty promises. They help us to carry out our work day in, day out; they guide us in our dealings with each other and with our customers and stakeholders; ultimately they are the bedrock of the culture of our company.

Society
Wake up in the morning and our products will be in the very fabric of your home; the toothpaste you brush your teeth with; the bridges you cross; the floor you walk on; the office you work in; and even be in the sports pitches you play on. So if you thought Tarmac was just about roads, think again...

Tarmac in our Society
Many products we take for granted - from paper to glass, cosmetics to toothpaste - are manufactured using materials derived from quarrying. Aggregates provide the raw materials for the world we live in. So not only do aggregates give us places to live, places to work and places to play, but they also underpin our society.

Communication
We seek to promote and maintain open and honest dialogue with all of our stakeholders, not least the communities in which we operate, and we take pride in being a good neighbour.

Understanding
It's important to us that the local communities where we operate understand what we do and why we do it. So we hold open days and exhibitions, issue newsletters, set up local liaison groups and take part in local events. We also have strong links with schools - giving talks on careers in construction, and advising education bodies on construction qualifications. We've even set up our own education website - Quarryville - www.tarmac.co.uk/quarryville

Support
Tarmac sponsors and supports community groups, environmental projects, and a variety of charities and trusts. Projects to date have included those that encourage and develop community involvement and spirit, and create and enhance habitats for birds and wildlife. We've funded agricultural shows and school football strips and maintained public footpaths and bridleways among many others.
