This summer the construction community is coming together to remember a very loved industry colleague Ben Burton

#BeMoreBen

Birmingham and the Midlands construction community are raising money for The Brain Tumour Charity and the Myton Hospice in Warwick that cared for Ben during his last weeks.  Ben passed away in October but his legacy lives on.

To support this fundraising, 100's of Ben's friends and colleagues from the industry will take on 10k and 20 Tough Mudder 2023 challenges to raise money for the causes close to Ben’s heart and make him proud.  

Ben was an inspiration to so many people in all walks of life and people were always drawn to him; his energy was infectious. He would be the first to sign up for something like this and would encourage everyone to do the same – he was a huge advocate for sport.

Karina Connolly worked with Ben and was one of his closest friends:  ‘The #BeMoreBen team is made up of different people from the industry with different levels of fitness and for some of us it will be a real challenge so please support the fundraising page, if you can.  Ben once said: the cure cannot wait.  And it really can’t!  Ben was a truly special person and I am sure he will be proud of us when we take on the Tough Mudder on 25th June 2023’
