On the evening of 27th September, 2019, CJ Thorne & Co became the winner of three prestigious awards across two separate events!

• WINNER of Best Construction Project Award – South East Construction Awards 2019

• WINNER of Outstanding Team of the Year Award – East Sussex Business Awards 2019

• WINNER of Overall Business of the Year Award – East Sussex Business Awards 2019

We can’t stop smiling! Thank you to the judging panels for recognising our achievements, and special thanks to the amazing workforce at CJ Thorne & Co… It may sound like a cliché but it really has been a team effort. What a fantastic way for us to collectively celebrate our 80 years in the industry.

On Saturday evening CJ Thorne and Co were proud sponsors of one of the races at Hove Greyhound Stadium, in celebration of our 80th year in the Civil Engineering industry. Pictured are some of the staff, posing with Truffles, the race winner.

Huge thanks to the team of CJ Thorne staff and their families who volunteered, at the weekend, to participate in the 2019 Great British Beach Clean, organised by the Marine Conservation Society. The lovely weather was a great help, down on Seaford Beach, but ultimately, whatever the weather had in store, the Thorne volunteers were ready to roll up their sleeves, as a business from the local community, and take a share in the responsibility to help look after our environment. Associate Director Alan Skipper said “We were pleasantly surprised to find the beach in a clean condition. It was refreshing to learn that the local community regularly volunteer their time to keep the beach clean! But still our efforts collected 2 bags of rubbish which included the normal culprits of small plastics, cigarette butts and fishing lines.” It’s a timely reminder for us all to take our rubbish home and recycle it!

If you happen to visit our stand at the South East Construction Expo on Thursday 26th September you could win a lovely prize! All you have to do is drop off your business card and you will automatically be entered in the draw to win a luxurious Fortnum & Mason hamper! So, come and see us on Stand 120 for a catch up anytime between 9am and 4pm. It’s a business-to-business event, dedicated to the construction sector, bringing together clients, contractors, buyers, consultants and developers, so there are plenty of interesting things to see and do on the day, aside from, of course, chatting to us!
