CRADDY PITCHERS DAVIDSON CHRISTMAS 2009 |
The credit crunch, fall in construction workload and ruthless fee competition have taken their toll over the last 12 months and in these troubled times, we felt it appropriate to consider a more serious approach to Christmas compared to previous years.
Rather than sending out Christmas cards this year, we have decided instead to donate to a local charity 10p* for every You Tube hit of any of the six available videos that happens before Christmas Day. To see all of the videos please follow the link below.
Finally, all of us here at Craddy Pitchers Davidson wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Inspiring Children To Aim High |
Craddy Pitchers Davidson were proud to have been able to organise a fun challenge at St Katherine’s School in Pill. The school children were asked to design and build as tall a tower as they could out of no more than a newspaper and a roll of sticky tape. The winning students managed to achieve an impressive 2.58m high construction and director Colin Davidson, who was honoured to have been able to judge the competition, had the following to say, “I think it’s a fantastic chance for us to get involved with local school and perhaps encourage a future Structural Engineer.” The Craddy Pitchers Davidson team that had been tasked with setting an example were unavailable for comment.
