Giving Back 2026
Band of Builders is the National Construction Charity providing practical, financial and wellbeing support for members of the UK construction industry and their families who face adversity due to illness, injury or life-changing circumstances.
About Band of Builders
Band of Builders was born in 2016 when our founder took to social media to ask for help renovating the home of close friend and colleague Keith Ellick who had been diagnosed with terminal cancer.
The incredible response from tradespeople across the UK saw the project completed and demonstrated what can be achieved when the industry stands together.
From there, Band of Builders was formed and continues to complete further projects across the UK with the value of TogetherStronger at its core.
In 2019 the organisation gained charity status in England and Wales and now works formally to help members of the construction industry and their families across the country in their hour of need.
Since that first project to help Keith, Band of Builders has completed a wide range of projects with a combined delivery value of over £1m which includes accessible bathrooms and kitchens, wheelchair ramps, cabins and even complete home renovations.
We provide practical, financial and wellbeing support to support members of the construction sector and partner with industry leaders to ensure we can help as many people as possible.

AJW Distribution is proud to support Band of Builders as our Charity of the Year for 2026, with an ambitious fundraising target of over £15,000.
As a business made up predominantly of men, when asked which charity we should support this year, the response was unanimous — a men’s mental health charity. With so many worthy causes to choose from, Band of Builders stood out as the perfect fit. Not only is their work vitally important, but their dedication to supporting people within the construction industry strongly aligns with our own values.
What truly sets Band of Builders apart is the breadth of support they provide. They offer practical assistance to families and dependants facing life-changing or life-limiting circumstances, including ill health or disability. This hands-on support can make a real and immediate difference during incredibly difficult times.
In addition, they provide financial support through grants for those working within the UK construction industry who are experiencing financial hardship.
Finally, Band of Builders deliver a range of wellbeing services designed to support individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, addiction, relationship and marital difficulties, or financial pressures.
This charity genuinely cares for the people within our industry. By offering practical, financial, and wellbeing support, Band of Builders reaches those who need help the most — and we are proud to play our part in supporting their vital work.
