This week, our Mannings team in Shoreham welcomed the Make It Visible van – an industry‑wide initiative from The Lighthouse Charity designed to break down stigma around mental health and encourage open, practical conversations within construction.

The Make It Visible team delivered short, impactful toolbox talks focused on recognising the signs of poor mental health, supporting colleagues who may be struggling, and knowing where to turn for help.

The sessions were very well received by the site team. Colleagues said that the talks were relatable, down‑to‑earth and genuinely useful, offering clear guidance on how to look after themselves and each other.

Thank you to everyone on site for engaging so openly, and to the Make It Visible team for the important work they do across the industry. Creating a culture where people feel able to speak up and seek support is something we all play a part in – and this visit was a valuable reminder of that.
