Eleanor Philpott and Jeremy Browne spent a half day in the labs helping separate DNA from cancer cells but mostly trying not to drop anything or get in the way! Professor O’Driscoll and his excellent team of scientists were very welcoming and they both learned a lot. Eleanor in particular showed some real promise with a pipette and was complimented by the team, they were just grateful that Jeremy didn’t set anything on fire. Eleanor said, “We had a fabulous day with the team and the work they are doing is fantastic and will make a real impact on cancer treatment in the future, I can’t think of a better charity to support. The money will have an immediate impact in fighting this horrible disease and improving people’s quality of life”. The Company has made a contribution to the ongoing work and hopes to help regularly going forward but further monies would be very welcome – www.cancerresearchuk.org/support-us/donate By admin|January 28th, 2016|news|0 Comments Read More Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Heart Unit Donation J Browne Construction (the Browne in Cappagh Browne) and two of its long standing supply chain partners Crangy Construction Ltd and Glenea Contracts Ltd came together to make a £15,000.00 donation to GOSH’s heart unit appeal.

The Centre is creating a place where local people can learn new practical skills. Cappagh Browne Utilities offered its assistance to this project while a team was in the area waiting to access a wastewater clean up job for Southern Water. The team was able to clear and grade back some of the garden areas on site and also removed some heavy log piles using an excavator. Riverside Director Steve Edmonds thanked Cappagh Browne for its hard work. “We now have the area clear and can start repairing the paths, which we will be using to teach brickwork skills on,” he said. District Sewerage Operations Manager, Stuart Hatt, came across the Riverside Centre while visiting stakeholders ahead of the planned clean up operation. “I spoke to the staff at the centre to gain access to the piece of land at the rear of the garden centre and they were very helpful in supplying access, an area for spoil collection and a secure area for plant,” he said. The staff explained what the centre was intending to do with the grounds and Mr Hatt advised them that Cappagh Browne Utilities could offer its assistance.
