We’re proud sponsors of professional mixed martial arts (MMA) top-tier fighter Connor Wilson, helping to lay the solid foundations that will take him all way to world champion.

Connor, who’s a black belt in karate and a purple in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, has been on the professional circuit since early 2020 and trains at Next Generation Liverpool, a highly regarded MMA gym in the city.

He also trains the boss’s grandkids John and Daniel – who’ve been introduced to a whole new world of drilling!

Mixed martial arts (MMA) is a full-contact combat sport. Competitions allow athletes from different martial arts disciplines to compete under a set of unified rules. MMA combat disciplines are made up of boxing, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, Jiu-jitsu, judo, karate, kickboxing, kung-fu, Taekwondo, and wrestling. A win comes from a submission, knock-out, technical knock-out, and judges’ decision.

Molyneux Building Solutions is backing Connor because we build winners!

Our work placements for young people have earned us a prestigious 2025 Patron Status award from Elevate Education Business Partnership.  

Elevate works across the Liverpool city region connecting up employers, educators and young people to meet the organisation’s mission statement: to transform lives and create growth.  

AA Molyneux Builders has been recognised for the huge impact our work experience placements have had in helping young people to cross the bridge from school to work.  

Elevate EBP Chief Executive Gill Ditchburn said: “In true ‘New Year’s Honours List’ style, we are thrilled to award our Elevate EBP 2025 Patron Status to remarkable organisations and businesses. Our 2025 Patrons have really gone above and beyond in supporting our work to Transform Lives and Create Growth across the Liverpool city region throughout the last year, and each one was recognised and nominated by members of our team for their outstanding commitment and dedication to quality careers support for young people.”  

AA Molyneux Builders Managing Director Andrew Molyneux said: “It’s good to give something back to the community that we serve by giving young people work placements. We’ll always need skilled tradesmen and when they’re ready, they’ll need jobs. Helping with the transition from school to work is one way we can help. It’s great to be recognised formally, in this way.”
