Who We Are

Construction Help Desks, operated by Brighter Miles Limited, is a UK-based guidance and support platform that helps individuals enter and progress within the UK construction industry. We focus on offering assistance, clarity, and direction to workers who need construction cards, tests, qualifications, and compliance support to legally work on construction sites across the United Kingdom.

Many newcomers and skilled workers face challenges understanding the application process, qualification requirements, and card levels. Our aim is to simplify this journey and remove confusion by providing step-by-step assistance, documentation guidance, and booking help based on job roles and experience levels.

Our purpose is to ensure that every worker, regardless of background or experience, receives the information and support required to build a solid career within the construction sector and access better opportunities, higher pay scales, and long-term employability.

Why We Exist

The construction industry in the UK is expanding rapidly, and there is a continuous demand for competent and certified workers who understand health and safety regulations. However, many applicants struggle with:

  • Understanding which card they need and why.
  • Finding the right qualifications and course requirements.
  • Booking tests in the correct location and choosing the right type.
  • Confusion about job roles and card eligibility (Labourer vs Skilled).
  • Errors during application due to missing or incorrect documents.
  • Language barriers or first-time applicants with limited knowledge.

We bridge this gap by offering a platform that provides clarity, eliminates guesswork, and guides applicants with a systematic plan — from preparation to booking and final application.
