Building More Than Infrastructure at Show & Tell 2026

We are incredibly proud to welcome back Story Contracting as our Headline Sponsor for Show & Tell 2026.

As a business that has supported Show & Tell from the very beginning, this marks their third consecutive year backing the event, and their continued commitment means a huge amount to us, our partners, and the wider community.

Headquartered in Carlisle, Story Contracting is a privately-owned, award-winning civil engineering company, delivering high-quality rail, construction and plant solutions across the UK.

With divisions operating across England and Scotland, they have built a strong national reputation for excellence, combining technical expertise with a clear focus on safety, quality and collaboration.

From major rail upgrades and bridge reconstructions to complex civil engineering projects, Story Contracting plays a vital role in shaping and maintaining the infrastructure that keeps communities connected.

But what truly sets them apart is their people-first approach. Guided by their ethos to “Do It Right”, Story Contracting invests heavily in its teams, prioritising development, wellbeing and a strong culture of responsibility, ensuring every project is delivered to the highest standards.

Their roots in Cumbria remain at the heart of everything they do. From humble beginnings in the 1980s to becoming one of the UK’s most respected contractors, Story Contracting has always stayed true to its values – supporting local jobs, investing in communities and creating long-term impact.

That same commitment to community is exactly why their ongoing support of Show & Tell is so important. As an event built around bringing people together, celebrating local organisations, and creating opportunities, having a partner like Story Contracting, who genuinely believes in community is invaluable.
