Two colleagues from Anchor - Augusta Court in Chichester have been out supporting a local hospice, with a little help from their dogs 🐾💜

Magda and Nikki took their four-legged friends, Leo and Bruno, to the Woof for Wilf walk at Goodwood Motor Circuit. They joined others in the community to raise money for St Wilfred’s Hospice, despite the rainy weather.

They said it was a lovely way to give back to a hospice that has supported the home and its residents over the years.

Read more about their day below.

Say hello to the elves at Anchor - The Beeches 🎁 🎄

We think you'll all agree, Danny and Trident Maintenance Services Ltd have done an outstanding job renovating this old well. Thank you! Find out more below 👇

𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐬 𝐦𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞...

Recently whilst undertaking works for Anchor at Howden Dene, Trident's 1st year painting and decorating apprentice, Danny Bamborough, noticed a well in the grounds that had fallen into disrepair.

The stately home originally built in 1890 and once owned by novelist Catherine Cookson, boasts a wide array of sprawling gardens and the well sits as an important centrepiece of the landscape.

Danny, having identified the need to restore the well to its former glory, lovingly prepared and painted the metalwork, taking great care to protect the historic stonework during the process.

We think you will agree he has done an amazing job and beautifully demonstrated the importance of taking pride in your work, as well as Trident's culture of added value and community impact.
