Community spirit is alive and well

Mark Finlayson - Tuesday, May 12, 2009

It is heartening in these tough economic times to see that community spirit is alive and well in Auckland. Recently, in conjunction with Signature Homes, we have been involved in a community project in West Auckland that has really been quite special. The Forsyth Family has had a really tough time recently and when approached by Graeme Robertson from Signature Homes for help we felt privileged. TVNZ ran a Close Up programme on the Forsyth Family, this can be viewed here. Our team carried out all of the initial building setout including pre calculations, upload of data, on site control, installation of height datum and building corner setout.

It was our small contribution to the Forsyth Family and it made us feel great to have been involved. The real driver behind the project has been Graeme Robertson of Signature Homes West Auckland and we would like to thank Graeme and his team for allowing us to be part of this community effort.

We would like to wish the Forsyth Family all the best for their future, no doubt they will be looking forward to stepping out of the limelight and getting back to being a family again.
