Hi Everyone,

As we move into the final months of the year, we wanted to share a short update on a few items in our autumn/winter timetable.

Our upcoming ISO audit has now been rescheduled to January 2027. This gives us valuable time to incorporate the revised ISO 14001 environmental management requirements into our preparation. The Warrington Office will still be required to provide evidence needed for this audit and guidance will follow to the office team.

Looking further ahead, there will be no formal briefing event this year ahead of celebrations on 9th December. Instead, we’ll be sharing a 2026 Highlights Video on the intranet; achievements, milestones and team moments, told through the eyes of the whole team. For those attending the Christmas celebration, we’ll be meeting at the Manchester office before heading out for lunch and a game of interactive darts. We look forward to seeing you there!

We’re also pleased to recognise Julia, who is this month’s ERA recipient, a well‑deserved acknowledgement. Congratulations, Ju.

And finally, a special shout out to Alex and Adele on their upcoming wedding. Wishing you both a wonderful day and every happiness for the future.

Neil, Steve, Andy and Nat
