In 2025 Tony Handyman Builders Ltd opened its Corporate Social Responsibility department with the objective to “give back” to the community through its community based projects.

As per policy, the company received several applications and requests from charities and individuals in London for the 2025 CSR works.

In 2025, we chose to work with Vauxhall City Farm, a small charity based in Lambeth, which has been working to serve the South West London community for over 30 years. By constructing their Rainbow path, the company has enabled better access and hand-washing facilities to the mini-zoo - creating provisions for thousands of visitors to enjoy the zoo in a more organised and hygienic manner. In 2014-2015 we supported the Mayor of Southwark’s projects: The Robes Project and UK Homes4Heroes.
