The ‘Ty D Sites’ Series

Ty D Sites is an on-going series of books, written by Saheb Dhesi. Whilst giving an insight into how the logistics of a construction site is managed, it encourages a conversation with young readers about construction related themes and terms; on-site safety; road safety; the environment; fire safety; equality, diversity and inclusion. Hopefully it will inspire some of the next generation to be drawn towards an accessible and welcoming construction industry open to all regardless of gender, physical ability, race, religion, colour or creed.

The children were able to make connections with the characters

Rated 5 out of 5

The children thoroughly enjoyed ‘Ty D Sites’ so much so, they all wanted to become construction workers for the day. The children were able to make connections with the characters in the book and became excited to see people like themselves.

The book brought to our attention the many different roles needed to successfully operate a construction company, and how important teamwork is.
