2012 is the year for going for gold – and Linden Homes has got into the spirit of this by winning a Gold Award for the fourth year running at the annual RoSPA awards.

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents only gives out the Gold Award to UK companies who attain a very high level of safety management in the work place and who have shown an outstanding ability to minimise errors and control risk.

RoSPA’s objective is to reduce the number of accidents and cases of ill health at work and the awards are in place to encourage organisations to develop robust health and safety management systems.

David Cole, Construction Director from Linden Homes Southern, says that a fourth award is a really great achievement: “When we won our third Gold Award last year, I said that it recognised Linden’s highly effective safety systems. This year, those safety systems have remained robust and we’re really proud to accept our fourth Gold Award in a row from RoSPA.

“It’s always good to know that while we are attempting to maintain impeccable safety standards, our efforts are being recognised by an organisation like RoSPA. We are really pleased that the Gold Award acknowledges once again that our standards at Linden Homes are not only very high – but consistently so.”

Matt Paine, Linden Homes Southern’s Managing Director says the emphasis on health and safety at Linden Homes’ sites underpins everything the company does: “At Linden Homes we’re really proud of our renowned build quality and first class finish. We also have a truly excellent record of great customer service and a great reputation within the industry: But behind the scenes there is a tremendous amount of work that goes on to maintain our very exacting safety standards both on and off site – and to maintain those standards from year to year, so we’re as proud – if not prouder - to receive this fourth award as we were to receive the first.” For more information on Linden Homes Southern and its current developments and properties available, please call 02380 665115 or visit the website: www.lindenhomes.co.uk.
