Actavo Industrial supports Julian Benson Cystic Fibrosis Foundation

Actavo Industrial is immensely proud to have teamed up with a number of companies to support the renovation of ‘Tranquility House’ for the Julian Benson Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The renovation was featured on RTE’s Room to Improve on January 26th.

Tranquility House, in Dublin 6, is Ireland's first home away from home, providing accommodation annually for hundreds of CF warriors and their families attending St Vincent’s Hospital for treatment for cystic fibrosis. 

Actavo Industrial donated scaffolding and manpower to facilitate renovation of the 162-year-old three-storey Georgian house, with a lower ground floor, which was stripped back to its bare walls during the project. The scaffold structure was installed with four working levels on both the front and rear elevations of the building. These levels were securely tied into the existing structure, ensuring stability and safety. The setup allowed follow-on trades to safely access the necessary areas to carry out essential repairs on both the roof structure and the brickwork. 

Our thanks to our Project Manager, John, Supervisor, Liam, Truck Driver, Dessi, and Scaffolding team, Daniel, Joey, Mark and Dumitru, for all their work on this fantastic initiative.

Sincere thanks to Actavo Industrial for donating scaffolding and a great team to install and operate the structure, to allow for all external works to be carried out safely. We are so grateful to you all.
