Meet the UK's first Cat 320 Battery Electric Excavator.

While others are talking about what's next, Flannery are already putting it to work.

Supplied by Flannery and operating in collaboration with SCS and HS2 (High Speed Two) Ltd at Euston, this machine represents a major step forward in bringing low-emission technology to large-scale infrastructure projects.

Powered by a 387 kWh battery and supported by 40kW Kempower charging, it delivers the same features, capability and operator experience as a conventional diesel machine, without compromising on performance.

The future of low-carbon construction is already taking shape. The challenge now isn't proving it works, it's scaling it. Together with SCS and HS2, we're helping lead that transition on site.

At Flannery, social value is about more than the projects we work on. It's about supporting people, strengthening communities, and creating opportunities to make a lasting difference.

One story that particularly stood out was that of Will Flannery, who got in touch because of the shared Flannery name. When we heard about his mission to complete a 100km charity cycle ride in memory of his friend Nancy Dunne and raise money for Birmingham Children's Hospital Charity, we were proud to support the cause. Alongside 39 classmates, Will helped raise more than £28,000, with Nancy's father taking part in the ride and fellow student Dean completing the challenge on a specially adapted bike despite living with cerebral palsy. A huge well done to Will and all his classmates on an incredible achievement.

If you'd like to support Will's fundraising efforts, you can find the donation link in the comments.

We've also been supporting local community projects by donating machinery to help improve facilities at Castle Bromwich Junior & Infant Schools, contributing to a safer and more enjoyable playground environment. In Tenby, our equipment helped enable the construction of a new footpath and spectator hardstanding area at the local football club.

Supporting wellbeing remains a key focus. Our Head of Social Value and EDI, Odee Pessu, joined forces with PAM Wellness to deliver awareness sessions across multiple Eiffage Kier Ferrovial BAM (EKFB) sites, helping operators, fitters and office-based teams engage in important conversations around wellbeing, mental health, and the impact of drug and alcohol misuse.

We've also been proud to support fundraising initiatives through football, including charity tournaments organised by Careys Foundation and Taylor Woodrow, helping raise vital funds for organisations that provide essential support to families and communities.

These stories remind us that the greatest impact comes when people come together with a shared purpose.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in these initiatives. We’re proud to have played a part.

In this instalment of our Powered by Her series, we're celebrating Amita Joshi, our Accounts Payable Manager, whose 15-year career at Flannery reflects the commitment, knowledge and passion that drive our business forward.

Having witnessed the business evolve over the years, Amita has been part of an incredible period of change and progress. Through every stage of that journey, she has built a wealth of knowledge, developed lasting relationships and played a key role in keeping things moving behind the scenes.

For Amita, one of the most rewarding aspects of her career has been growing alongside the business, adapting to change and contributing to Flannery's continued success.

Amita's story is a testament to the value of dedication, experience and the people who help shape our success every day.

Sometimes, the first step into your career starts with simply being given a chance.
For Renee and Krushi, Flannery’s H.I.R.E Programme introduced them to a career path they hadn’t previously considered and gave them the support to grow from day one.

From arriving as graduates at the start of their careers to becoming confident members of the payroll team, both have developed new skills, built their confidence and discovered just how many opportunities exist within construction beyond the site.

Their experience is also proof that a career in construction goes far beyond site-based roles, with opportunities to learn, develop and build a career across the wider industry.

We’re proud to have Renee and Krushi as part of the Flannery team, and we can’t wait to see what they continue to achieve as they grow their careers with us.

Designed for graduates and early career professionals, school leavers, and apprenticeship achievers, follow the link in the comments to kick-start your career now.

In the Spring of 1984, Caroline Brown first walked into Flannery.

Having started in the home of Paddy and Mary Flannery, she has been part of the family's journey from the very beginning, helping shape the foundations of the business.

42 Years on, she is still an integral part of who we are today.

Thankyou, Caroline.

Social value isn't measured by what you give. It's measured by what you help create.

At Coram's Fields in the London Borough of Camden, we were proud to provide plant equipment to help bring to life a more inclusive play environment for London's children.

A place with fewer barriers, more opportunities, and room for every child to play, explore and belong.

Because lasting impact isn't defined by the work we do.

It's defined by the moments we leave behind.

Building spaces. Empowering communities. Creating legacy.

It’s all happening across Suffolk & Norfolk.

Kelvin’s journey started in Norwich, building his career as a bricklayer. But for him, experience isn’t the end point, there’s always more to learn.

That mindset brought him to our Operator Skills Hub in Lound, Suffolk, ready for his next step.

It’s the big projects that motivate him, roads, power stations, work that makes a difference.

As he starts his journey with Flannery, he’s clear: “There’s no better place than here to start.”

It shows in the way he works, turning up every day ready to learn, get involved, and make an impact.

At Flannery, backing people like Kelvin is what it’s all about, creating opportunities for local talent, building skills that stay in the area, and strengthening the communities we work in.

Stories like this are what our Lound Upskilling series is all about, real people, real progress, right here in Suffolk.

Because when you invest locally, the impact goes further.

Another busy week for Flannery Plant Hire, connecting with industry partners, supporting great causes, and helping shape future talent pathways across our industry.

We were proud to support the annual Costain Group & Thames Water Charity Raft Race, where teams took to the water in a fantastic display of teamwork, creativity and fundraising. The event brought together colleagues, partners and clients for a day of friendly competition, networking and community spirit, all while raising money for important causes.

At our Operator Skills Hub in Kirklees, we welcomed National Infrastructure and Service Transformation Authority (NISTA), Network Rail and the The Transpennine Route Upgrade (TRU) team.

The visit was a great opportunity to showcase how the Hub is creating employment pathways, supporting major infrastructure projects and helping to build the skills pipeline for the future. By bringing industry partners together, we can share success stories, strengthen project delivery and create lasting opportunities for local communities.

We were also honoured to be represented at the Queen Camilla Birthday Gun Salute in London by our own John Moran and Lee O'Dwyer. During the event, John had the opportunity to reconnect with Major Michael McCarthy MBE of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, whose work with The Fusiliers Veterans continues to support service leavers transitioning into rewarding careers through our Operator Skills Hub Bootcamps.

From supporting charity fundraising and strengthening industry partnerships to investing in future talent and championing veterans' employment, it's been a week that truly reflects what Flannery is all about: people, opportunity and collaboration.
