ODS has partnered with one of its trusted contractors to provide fast, free support to Sobell House, a local hospice, after it unexpectedly lost access to a vital outdoor storage unit.
The hospice, which relies on secure space for equipment used in community fundraising activities, contacted ODS seeking urgent assistance. ODS swiftly coordinated with Witney-based contractor CEF Brick and Stonework to assess the site, source a suitable replacement structure, and arrange a full installation within a matter of days. All of the work was provided at no cost to the hospice.
Representatives from both organisations attended the installation, preparing the area and supporting specialist fitters as they assembled the new outdoor shed. The structure provides increased storage capacity and ensures the hospice can continue operating its essential services uninterrupted.
