✨ £40,000 Presented to Tabor Living ✨
We’re proud to share that the inaugural Midlands Construction Charity Ball raised an incredible £167,000 in total, supporting four Midlands-based charities - including Tabor Living, who provide better opportunities for people experiencing homelessness across Birmingham.

In this photo, a cheque for £40,000 is presented to Tabor Living by: Bill Friel (Friel Homes), Amy Tipper (Tippers), Jamie Airey (EH Smith Builders Merchants) and Alice Dillon (M. Lambe Construction).

Tabor Living plays a vital role in supporting individuals as they move towards a more permanent and stable living situation. Once at Tabor House, each guest receives a full review to understand the challenges they may be facing.

With the help of trained staff, dedicated volunteers, and a weekly Volunteer Mentor (who continues supporting them even after they leave), Tabor Living provides practical guidance and long-term support to help guests overcome these barriers and rebuild their lives.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended, donated, and supported the event - your generosity is creating a lasting impact in our communities.

📅 The 2026 Midlands Construction Charity Ball takes place on Friday 11th September 2026.
