02Legacie Foundation
Giving back, built in
The Legacie Foundation is a fundraising and social impact initiative dedicated to improving the lives of local people and communities. Through giving back, the foundation empowers individuals to build better futures and create lasting change.
This commitment goes beyond our social responsibility as a business — it reflects our values and is woven into everything we do. Each of our live project sites is dedicated to a charity.

- Alder Hey Children’s CharitySupporting Alder Hey Children’s Hospital
“Supporting the people and communities of Liverpool and beyond is more than just our social responsibility; it’s something I deeply believe in. Growing up, I saw how my dad, through our family-run scaffolding business, gave others a chance when opportunities were scarce, instilling in me a sense of responsibility and community. At Legacie, as we help build new communities in Liverpool, we remain committed to those we already serve. We actively support local people, including recruiting ex-offenders to close the skills gap and build a loyal, strong workforce. Through the Legacie Foundation, we strive to leave the world a little better than we found it.”
03Second Chance Scheme
An in-house programme designed to give ex-offenders a second chance.
Through our award-winning Second Chance Scheme we recruit and employ ex-offenders, providing training and career opportunities in construction and helping them reintegrate into society.
Since 2016, we have supported 50 prison leavers — creating a diverse, loyal workforce and helping to reduce reoffending rates.

05Community engagement
Time, given back
We conduct site visits with students and professors from Liverpool John Moores University — introducing them to live construction sites with company presentations, industry insights and Q&A sessions to inspire the next generation of professionals.
Every Legacie employee is entitled to paid charity time each year through our Give Something Back days, whether raising donations or giving their time to our local causes.
Local recruitment
We prioritise local recruitment and accessible, entry-level roles, working with schemes like Liverpool In Work to connect people with opportunities. 60% of our workforce is sourced from Merseyside, and we have created over 500 local jobs through our supply chain.
