Real Social Value: 'Building Futures' with Bouygues UK

"We need to use the people that we have, with their experience, to bring in the next generation of construction professionals."

Samantha Mayo, Social Value Manager at Bouygues UK

Building futures

Hear honest conversations between young people and their line managers about confidence, learning curves, and the moments that made them feel they belonged. Throughout the film, a central theme emerges: the importance of nurturing the next generation. Leaders describe what it means to recognise potential early and give it safe space to thrive, showing how mentorship and everyday encouragement shape future talent.

A powerful reflection from the Project Director, who began his own journey as an apprentice, brings everything full circle - proving how people grow when leaders invest in them, and communities grow when those people give back.

"You need to be able to give back, both your experience, your life, and give back to the community local to you."

Neil Pixsley, Project Director at Bouygues UK
