The biggest reward I’ve taken from the impact of Southwark Construction Skills Centre at Elephant Park is our work within the community. As a Southwark resident the work we completed by trainees on projects such as the Peace Garden on Walworth Rd is a great example of social return of investment. John White MBE, Director
