Some of our employees recently took some time out of their day to help decorate the new Emmaus Bradford facility. Their new base will help support formerly homeless people by giving them a home, meaningful work, and a sense of belonging. Since we started our support for Emmaus in 2020, we’ve helped raise over £127,000 for the charity which has gone towards helping them achieve their end goal of ending homelessness. 💚💙

Last week children from Hoyland Common Primary School had a day out at our super hub in Barnsley! The pupils took part in many activities during the day and were shown around the operation. They loaded a special parcel onto our automatic parcel conveyor belts, visited the control room to talk to our drivers, were shown our state-of-the-art CNG vehicles, raced remote control cars, and even took part in a drawing competition for the chance to win a prize. It was a fun day for all involved! 💙
