Glow-worm has announced a new 12-month corporate sponsorship agreement with construction industry charity, Band of Builders to both give installers opportunities to help others in the trade or raise awareness of where to reach out should they need support themselves.
Band of Builders is a UK-registered charity that supports tradespeople, construction workers and their families during times of crisis. Alongside its 24-hour wellbeing and crisis support service, where construction workers can text BoB to 85258 for immediate, confidential support, the charity delivers rapid, high-impact home adaptation and renovation projects, mobilising the construction industry to support its own.
Building on ‘Got Your Back’.
Glow-worm’s sponsorship builds on its Got Your Back campaign, which focuses on providing tradespeople with the tools, resources and support they need to get the job done. The partnership with Band of Builders extends this commitment beyond practical solutions, helping to raise awareness of the charity’s vital work throughout 2026 and encouraging wider industry involvement.
James Fowler, Marketing and Strategy Director at Glow-worm, comments: “While Glow-worm will always have installers’ backs through reliable products, expert support and access to training, we want to go further.
“Our partnership with Band of Builders allows us to extend that support to those in the construction industry who are facing both professional and personal challenges. By working together, we can help ensure more tradespeople know where to turn when times get tough, while also encouraging others to get involved and support this important work.”
Band of Builders is already having a significant impact across the UK. By the end of 2025, the charity had completed 48 major home adaptation and renovation projects, worth almost £2 million, supporting individuals and families when they needed it most. Two projects are about to be completed and a further six have since been announced. See https://bandofbuilders.org/pages/upcoming-projects for the latest details.
All projects are delivered using the donated time and skills of construction industry volunteers, helping to build a community of more than 50,000 supporters, helpers and corporate partners nationwide.
Gavin Crane, CEO of Band of Builders, adds: “We are delighted to welcome Glow-worm as a sponsorship partner for 2026. With demand for our services continuing to grow, it is vital that more companies across the industry work alongside us.
“Glow-worm’s support will help us extend the reach and impact of our work, ensuring more people within the construction community receive help when they need it most.”
