The celebration recognised the achievements of 15 new graduates and reflected on the growth and impact of the partnership since its launch in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The course, a five-week intensive programme based at Reaseheath\u2019s dedicated construction training centre, equips learners with skills in bricklaying, plastering, tiling, plumbing, painting and decorating, alongside health and safety and employability training.<\/p>\n<p>Delivered in close collaboration between Reaseheath College and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildingheroes.org.uk\/\">Building Heroes,<\/a> the programme combines high-quality technical instruction with tailored pastoral support, ensuring that veterans and service leavers are not only equipped for the construction industry but supported holistically throughout their transition.<\/p>\n<p>The wider impact, however, goes far beyond qualifications. For many veterans, the programme offers not just a route into a new career, but also a chance to rebuild confidence, regain purpose, and connect with others through shared experiences.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Charles, CEO of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildingheroes.org.uk\/\">Building Heroe<\/a>s, explained: \u201cIt\u2019s been incredible to watch these veterans not just learn technical skills but reconnect with themselves and each other. The partnership is about empowering them to redefine their futures with confidence and purpose.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chris Meachem, who took the course in 2018 described the course as \u2018life-restoring\u2019. \u201cYou\u2019re learning new skills, but more than that, you\u2019re doing it with people who understand your background,\u201d he said. \u201cThat shared experience really matters. The confidence I got from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildingheroes.org.uk\/\">Building Heroes<\/a> has changed the direction of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Terry Suckling, one of the latest graduates, echoed the sentiment: \u201cThis has been the best five weeks. I\u2019m more confident now than I\u2019ve ever been, and I\u2019ve just secured a new job starting in September. I\u2019d recommend this to anyone leaving the Forces.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The course is delivered with the support of Reaseheath staff, many of whom have worked with the programme since its inception. Andrew Gould, Curriculum Area Manager, and Craig Blount, Construction Lecturer, have been instrumental in shaping its delivery and ethos over the years.<\/p>\n<p>The recent celebration event took place in Reaseheath Hall and was attended by distinguished guests including Jo\u00eblle Warren MBE DL, High Sheriff of Cheshire, and Major General (Retd) Richard Spencer, Patron of Building Heroes. Graduates were presented with their certificates in front of an audience of friends, staff, supporters, and alumni.<\/p>\n<p>Marcus Clinton, Principal and CEO of Reaseheath College, reflected: \u201cWe are incredibly proud to reach the milestone of 500 graduates with our highly valued partner Building Heroes. I would like to pay tribute to our staff and those from Building Heroes whose commitment allows such programmes to run so successfully. This programme is a fantastic example of working in partnership to support reskilling into a priority sector alongside a transition back into civilian life. Working as an anchor institution to support the community and individuals is important to the college and we look forward to many more graduates to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jo\u00eblle Warren MBE DL, High Sheriff of Cheshire, who presented the certificates, also commented: \u201cThe Building Heroes programme is an exceptional initiative. We\u2019re not just celebrating the success of these graduates but recognising the immense contribution they\u2019ll make to the construction industry. Their journey is a testament to resilience, determination, and the power of second chances.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Brendan Williams, Founder of Building Heroes, shared his thoughts, adding: \u201cWhen we first started, we never imagined we\u2019d reach 500 graduates. To see so many veterans succeed, not only in gaining a trade but in regaining their sense of purpose and belonging, is humbling. This programme is about more than construction skills; it\u2019s about building a brighter future for those who\u2019ve given so much to our country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on the event and the 500-student milestone Andy Gould said: \u201cThis partnership continues to go from strength to strength. It\u2019s incredible to watch each cohort grow, develop, and succeed. We\u2019re not just teaching construction; we\u2019re empowering people to take control of their futures, here\u2019s to recruiting the next 500 graduates to Reaseheath.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jason Renshaw, Academy Leader &#8211; North West Region, has been a key part of the Building Heroes programme, overseeing the North West region&#8217;s academy and ensuring that veterans receive the support they need to succeed in the construction industry.<\/p>\n<p>He added: \u201cThe transformation I see in our learners is what makes this programme so special. It\u2019s not just about teaching construction skills; it\u2019s about building confidence, opening doors, and helping veterans transition into civilian life with purpose and direction. Every day, we see the immense value that veterans bring to the workforce, and it\u2019s a privilege to be a part of their journey. Watching them achieve, whether it\u2019s gaining new skills or securing a job, is the true reward of what we do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Building Heroes courses at Reaseheath run throughout the year and are open to Armed Forces veterans, those in resettlement, and veteran family members.<\/p>\n<p>To find out more or express interest, visit reaseheath.ac.uk or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buildingheroes.org.uk\/\">buildingheroes.org.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mdsnxpb8-2867942db7d207c0e857935da7b641cf\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-mdsnxpb8-2867942db7d207c0e857935da7b641cf{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-mdsnxpb8-2867942db7d207c0e857935da7b641cf .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-mdsnxpb8-2867942db7d207c0e857935da7b641cf .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-mdsnxpb8-2867942db7d207c0e857935da7b641cf av-special-heading-h3  avia-builder-el-2  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_one_fourth '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag'  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Building Heroes Alumni<\/h3><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1hydlav1-cee46990ead2b40259c1a142a35098ba av_one_fourth  avia-builder-el-3  el_after_av_heading  el_before_av_three_fourth  first flex_column_div  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-mdsn8iin-6a8740e5ccbe0c89bc532072013a2b14\">\n.avia-image-container.av-mdsn8iin-6a8740e5ccbe0c89bc532072013a2b14 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-mdsn8iin-6a8740e5ccbe0c89bc532072013a2b14 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-mdsn8iin-6a8740e5ccbe0c89bc532072013a2b14 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-4  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-142660 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-142660 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/www.reaseheath.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_8460-180x180.jpg\" alt='' title='IMG_8460'  height=\"180\" width=\"180\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.reaseheath.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_8460-180x180.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.reaseheath.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_8460-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/www.reaseheath.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/IMG_8460-36x36.jpg 36w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1e6638l9-792dd85a146bb3d532c14fdd3e24ac96 av_three_fourth  avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_one_fourth  el_before_av_one_fourth  flex_column_div  '     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mdsn8yic-04d0cc9e7afd6b31008ae93ff7cd9bbb '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><strong>James Martin<\/strong><br \/>\nJames was part of the very first Building Heroes cohort at Reaseheath in 2017.
