Fifteen members of staff led by Bill Gowdy, Director of Engineering Procurement took part in the initiative last month, with the objective to have fun and make a difference.

The NI Water volunteers spent the day at the Centre in North Ballymena tidying outside areas and painting the exterior walls brilliant white, adorned with the Centre’s logo, using paints and materials sponsored by Eurown Wallpaper and Paints Ballymena.

NI Water was invited to participate in the Cares Challenge by Centre Leader Janine Jackson, who thanked everyone who played a part in the transformation.

“Freshening up the outside creates a positive perception of the Centre which is situated in an area that is community-orientated and is a safe place to visit.”
