The Senior management team from CEMEX UK spent a day helping the local community in South Ferriby clean-up and repair some of the damage created by the flooding in December 2013.
The 10 colleagues, including Country President, Jesus Gonzalez worked hard removing debris and clearing hedges and ditch in front of houses on Sluice Road A1077, the main road through the village. They also cleaned two bus shelters on the same stretch of road.The CEMEX South Ferriby cement plant was also flooded on 4th December, and in March 2014 cement production re-commenced with the cement mill performing well since the restart.
The day was part of the company’s Lendahand scheme in which employees can take paid time off work to help in the community. In 2013 the Lendahand volunteering scheme resulted in over 100 days spent on a range of community projects including planting Spring bulbs in a local park, repairs and decoration at a children’s hospice and restoration work at a nature reserve.
