Fairstone Construction Ltd

Fairstone was founded in Coventry in 2009. The charity committee was introduced in 2018 when the founders realised that top-down charitable giving felt disconnected from the workforce. Giving staff genuine control over the charitable budget transformed engagement with the company's social mission.
