We have rewarded our longest-serving employees to show our appreciation for dedicating their time and energy for such a long period of time.

Adam, Dave, Darren, Ian and Chris have given a combined total of 159 years of service between them, showing loyalty, hard work and flexibility to adjust to varying roles and technologies.

“I feel that a lot of the traditions from the past have fallen by the wayside and that a nice watch was always a show of appreciation for long and dedicated service. The staff we have are very loyal and hardworking, so we wanted to bring some old values back as a way of saying thank you for giving us their time.”

— Gary Franklin, Director
