Jarvis Homes Ltd fund the Jarvis Centenary Scholarship which offers an annual scholarship to an undergraduate and postgraduate student. It was first awarded in 2007 and to date, 21 students have been supported by the awards. In 2022 the award was re-focussed to foster a clearer connection with Jarvis’s origins, supporting an undergraduate scholarship for those studying Architecture or Civil Engineering, and a postgraduate scholarship part-sponsoring research related to house-building.
The company’s motivation to donate is expressed clearly by Mike Peters, CEO of Jarvis Homes, who says:
“As a long-standing local employer, we believe it is important to invest in our community and our future generations. Our legacy should be beyond bricks and mortar.”
