Booker Hill and Our Commitment to Uttoxeter.
Engineering is a global profession, but successful businesses are built on strong local foundations. While Booker Hill delivers projects across the UK and internationally, Uttoxeter remains at the heart of everything we
do.
We believe that being part of a thriving local community is just as important as delivering excellence for our clients. From maintaining our ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 accreditations to supporting community initiatives such as Uttoxeter New Orleans Jazz Day, we are committed to making a positive contribution to Staffordshire.
Supporting local businesses is also a key part of our approach. Through the Uttoxeter Business Network at Heath House, we have worked with talented local companies that help us present our business professionally and deliver the high standards our clients expect.
These include:
1. Joanne Cooper Photography, whose imagery helps showcase our people and projects,
2. The Box and Beyond, who supply our team uniforms,
3. Greenshoot HR our valuable HR consultants and more.
A particularly valued partnership is with Holly and the team at Web Goddess. What began as a professional relationship has grown into a lasting friendship, built on trust, collaboration and a shared commitment to supporting local business. Over the years, Holly and her team have taken the time to truly understand Booker Hill, helping us communicate our story, showcase our expertise and strengthen our online presence. Their creativity, enthusiasm and ongoing support have made them an important part of our journey and, of course, without Web Goddess, you wouldn't be reading this blog today.
While our international headquarters may be based above a restaurant in Uttoxeter, that restaurant is far more than just a neighbour. Lowes on Carter Street, run by the exceptional Chef George and his wife Jem, has become an important part of our company culture and community involvement.
We are regular patrons of the restaurant, not only because of the outstanding food and hospitality, but also because of the fantastic relationship we have built over the years. The Booker Hill team and everyone at Lowes enjoy a genuine rapport, and the restaurant has become our preferred venue for team meals, celebrations and informal gatherings.
We are especially proud to support Lowes' annual Free Christmas Community Support Meal, an initiative that provides a festive meal for local residents and people from the surrounding area who may be experiencing financial hardship, health challenges or social isolation. It is a wonderful example of community spirit in action and perfectly reflects the values that make Uttoxeter such a special place. Supporting this event each year is something that means a great deal to us, and we are delighted to play a small part in helping bring people together during the festive season.
By investing in local suppliers, skills, and services, we help strengthen the regional economy while building trusted partnerships close to home. For us, success is about more than engineering projects. It’s about creating a sustainable business that supports local talent, local enterprise, and the wider Staffordshire community for years to come.
