Workplace Worksafe

This one’s close to my heart 💙

💬 Real stories. Real change. Inclusive recruitment in action.

This event means a lot to me. Inclusive recruitment isn’t just something I support — it’s something I deeply believe in. Giving people with disabilities, health conditions, or who are neurodivergent fair and open opportunities isn’t just the right thing to do — it makes businesses stronger, more creative, and more human.

I was actually invited to speak at this event this year, but my diary was so full I couldn’t give it the time and care it deserved — and honestly, it broke my heart to let them down. That’s how much I care about this work and the people driving it.

So while I might not be up there speaking, I’ll absolutely be cheering it on.
If you run a business or lead a team, I really recommend going along — it’s such an inspiring event that shares real experiences from real employers who’ve made recruitment more inclusive.

🌬 Help shape the future of wind industry training
What if standard operation and maintenance task training was available on every wind farm — right where the work happens?

We’re exploring the potential to develop a new 3D animated training platform designed to make turbine maintenance safer, more consistent, and more accessible. But before anything is built, we want to understand what the industry really needs.

We’re looking to speak with:
🦺 HSQE Managers
👷 Technicians
⚡ O&M Managers
… and anyone involved in training, upskilling, or maintaining wind assets.
Here’s how you can get involved:

👉 A quick 30-minute online interview
🎁 £50 voucher as a thank you
🔒 All responses anonymous & confidential
✨ Inspired by scenario-based tools already making an impact in the sector
📅 Pick a time that suits you: https://lnkd.in/eRgjekQE

Your input will directly shape whether — and how — this solution moves forward, ensuring it genuinely reflects real operational needs.

📢 Bank Holiday Update

After 20 years of August Bank Holidays, this will be the first time we’ll be closed on the Saturday morning.

I’ve always given our team this break, with Bec and I covering so they could enjoy the long weekend. After some pretty tough personal months, I realised I need to follow my own rule this year too – and take some time to relax and decompress.

Thank you to all our lovely customers for your understanding. We’ll be back on Tuesday at 8am, refreshed and ready for the back-to-work / school rush!

This month in our 20-year celebration posts…

Behind every milestone, there’s a team who made it happen. 💛

From Saturday morning students – teenagers starting their very first job and covering the trade counter – to those who joined us right at the beginning, those who stayed, those who left (and came back!), and everyone in between – you’ve all played a part in creating the Workplace-Worksafe we know today. We simply wouldn’t be here without you.

A massive thank you too, to our amazing team right now – you’ve not only kept everything running like clockwork, but you’ve lifted me and each other through the toughest 8 weeks of my life as we said an unexpected goodbye to my darling mum, who lost her battle with cancer a month ago.

Mum worked in the company not long after I set it up – and she was the strictest accounts lady anyone has ever met! She wouldn’t let me spend a penny without proof and would chase me round the office for missing receipts. But she was also our biggest cheerleader, and even after she left, she’d often pop in to see the team, share advice, or roll up her sleeves to help me in the embroidery or printing room on a Saturday morning – usually bribed with cake and tea!

This is one of my favourite work photos (with many more to come over the next few months) – Mum in her chair with Millie, one of our office dogs at the time, on her lap. It sums up what this place has always been about – heart, family, and the brilliant people who’ve made it what it is. ❤️🐾

And to all the brilliant people yet to join our story in the next 20 years – we can’t wait to see where we go together.

Here’s to every single one of you who has made this journey possible – past, present, and future. We’re only here because of you.
