We were delighted to host the British Fluid Power Association (BFPA) today at our Skelmersdale facility. Great to catch up with colleagues from our industry and hear about all the BFPA have achieved in the last year and the exciting plans they hace going forward. We were thrilled to be given official confirmation that we are approved to deliver the BFPA Level 1 Vocational Pneumatics course, one of just three providers in the country. And finally, a huge congratulations to our very own Rob Woodley - MIdiagE who has been accepted as a Fellow of the BFPA. A rare accolade, that has only been given to 10 others. We look forward to continuing to work closely with the BFPA. Thanks Chris Butcher and team.
