McPhillips has a long and proud track record of working alongside charities and not-for-profit organisations, including launching our own community fund to support good causes. From animal-welfare centres and rehoming kennels to care homes and community buildings, we make every penny count and keep existing facilities running throughout.
We bring programme and cost certainty to every project we work on – so that grant and partnership-funded schemes have clarity and confidence from day one. That means early contractor involvement, transparent commercial management and measurable social value at all times.
McPhillips has delivered welfare facilities that house and rehome hundreds of animals all over the country. Our projects include purpose-built rehoming centres, intake kennels, dog schools and veterinary facilities, all built to create an enriched, low-stress environment for the animals.
We work alongside our clients to ensure everything is designed to promote the animals’ welfare, including robust, easy-to-clean finishes, drainage and ventilation, acoustic separation and secure external runs. And we always phase the work to keep centres operating and animals safe throughout.
A welfare-led rehoming centre for up to 210 dogs, continuing McPhillips’ long-running national relationship with Dogs Trust.
Read case studyEvery care home, community hub or charity base we build is designed around the people who use them.
We build residential and extra-care homes, day-care and community facilities to demanding regulatory standards. That means things like infection-control, accessibility and fire safety are detailed from the outset. Many sit on occupied or constrained sites where the public still needs access, so we phase works carefully and communicate clearly with users and neighbours at all times.
Our visitor attractions, museums and cultural venues are built to welcome people, stand up to heavy use and run on complex building services.
These buildings mix big structural spans with intricate services and tough public-facing finishes, all brought together under one accountable contract. Many rely on grants or partnerships and work to fixed opening dates, so we get involved early, keep a tight grip on cost and programme and make sure everything lands exactly when it needs to.

Built for the long term.
What a project leaves behind matters just as much as the building itself. That’s why we set clear social value targets at the start of every contract — including local jobs, training, supply chain spend and community benefit — and report against them throughout.
