Megan Hamlyn, marketing manager at Barratt David Wilson Homes Southampton division, said: "We welcomed back charity partners both old and new to celebrate their work and discuss how we can best support them.

"Our charity networking event means they can share new projects and build valuable connections.

"By working with a wide network of charity partners, we can make a big difference."

The event reflects the housebuilder’s ongoing commitment to supporting good causes in the communities where it operates.

In 2025, it raised more than £250,000 for charities and community projects in just six months.

Current developments include Pebble Walk in Hayling Island and Forest Walk in Whiteley.
