Social Value

At KJ Tait, delivering social value is central to our mission. We aim to create a positive impact through education, community engagement, and sustainable development. Our approach combines practical action with long-term partnerships to benefit people and the planet.

Inspiring future engineers is a key part of our social value strategy. Through STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) workshops, school visits, and mentoring, we encourage young people to explore careers in engineering. These initiatives help build skills that support a sustainable future.

Sports bring communities together, and we’re proud to support that. By sponsoring local football teams, KJ Tait promotes healthy lifestyles and provides resources that allow these teams to thrive. This commitment strengthens community ties and encourages active living.

Volunteering is at the heart of our community engagement. Our team regularly gives time and expertise to local projects—from environmental clean-ups to supporting charities—making a real difference where it matters most.

Partnerships with universities help bridge the gap between academic learning and real-world practice. By supporting final-year projects, we provide students with practical experience and insights into engineering challenges, contributing to long-term social value.

Our involvement with LETI (Low Energy Transformation Initiative) and UKGBC (UK Green Building Council) ensures we influence sustainable building practices and policies that benefit society as a whole.
