Nevill Long Donation To Training Centre Proves A Recipe For Success

Interior systems specialists Nevill Long have supplied a winning ingredient to a training centre for youngsters with special educational needs.

The distributor’s Birmingham branch has donated 110m2 of Armstrong Ceilings’ Mezzanine DL 100 mineral tiles for a new café in response to a request for one hour fire resistant tiles from Kingsbury Training Centre in Erdington.
The tiles have been mounted on an Armstrong metal grid in the café that will provide training, work placements and employment for catering and hospitality students.
The training centre is a not-for-profit company formed in 1981 to support the positive progression of young people in north Birmingham who come from disadvantaged communities.Kingsbury fundraiser Bob Candlin said: “Had Nevill Long not stepped in we would have had to have paid for the ceiling tiles with money we don’t have. Without them we would not be in this position so we are very grateful.” Nevill Long MD Dave Bonner added: “We were delighted to be able to help these young people make the most of the opportunities available to them through Kingsbury Training Centre.”
