The Moorsley Community Trust project posed a unique challenge for MGM Construction: converting a temporary Portakabin into a permanent, fully equipped community centre, aimed at significantly enhancing the community’s infrastructure.
Understanding and integrating the specific needs and requirements of the local community was essential to the project’s success. To achieve this, MGM Construction engaged in extensive consultations with local volunteers and stakeholders well before construction commenced. These meetings were vital for gaining insights into the community’s expectations and exploring potential social and economic benefits that could be integrated into the development.
In addition to addressing community needs, MGM Construction adopted a strategic approach to manage costs and enhance efficiency. One innovative solution was to repurpose the existing Portakabin on the site as their welfare facilities during the construction phase. This decision not only helped in cost-saving but also reduced waste, demonstrating MGM’s commitment to sustainable building practices. Through these efforts, MGM delivered a project that exceeded community expectations, providing a versatile space that will serve Hetton-le-Hole for many years to come.
