We are incredibly proud to announce a two year corporate charity partnership with the Lennox Children’s Cancer Fund, a remarkable Essex-based charity providing emotional, practical and financial support to families facing childhood cancer.

The partnership was revealed in true OCL fashion during our annual summer social, where our Founder Tony Harris and Managing Director James Harris surprised special guests from Lennox: Vincent Fitzmaurice, Lindsey Bidwell and Vicky Nash. It was a heartfelt moment that moved many in the room.

Celebrating a Partnership with Purpose

To mark the beginning of our partnership, and in recognition of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, OCL was honoured to donate £25,000 to support the life-changing work Lennox carries out every day. Alongside this initial gift, we have pledged to raise an additional £25,000 over the next two years.

For more than 30 years, Lennox Children’s Cancer Fund has offered vital respite breaks, emotional support and crisis grants for families navigating the unimaginable challenges of a childhood cancer diagnosis. Their work brings comfort, hope and stability during the most difficult moments.

Looking Ahead: Team-Led Fundraising & Community Involvement

With the help of our dedicated employees, supply chain partners and supporters, we have exciting fundraising initiatives already in planning. Whether through charity events, team challenges or collaborative campaigns, we look forward to making a meaningful contribution to this extraordinary cause.

This partnership reflects OCL’s values as a family-run contractor. Just as we build safer, stronger and more resilient spaces in our construction work, we are equally committed to strengthening the communities around us.
