Shield Receives Social Value Award From ISG

Shield’s Second Chance Scheme Receives Social Value Award

Jamie Angell, Shield Scaffolding Services Managing Director, had the pleasure of receiving the Social Value Award at the ISG Wales & West supply chain awards.  The award reflected the impact of Shield’s Second Chance Scheme, which provides working opportunities to category C/D offenders who are entering the final phases of their sentence and are deemed to have reformed sufficiently and have earned the trust and the opportunity to reintegrate into society ahead of their potential release.

Jamie was on hand to receive the award from Paul Burt (pictured on the right), Operations Director at ISG, for the involvement of a Second Chance Operative on the North Quay House project in central Bristol.

Reflecting on the award, Jamie, commented, “We are delighted to receive this award from ISG as it confirms yet again the relevance of providing people with a second chance in life.  The guys integrate with our team just like any other new starter and have proven, time and again, that they are willing to take the opportunity provided to help turn their life around.”
