This weekend, part of our team attended . We’re incredibly proud to share that Pete took 2nd place in Best Special Types or Recovery for his truck, V14 LHS.

What makes this achievement even more meaningful is that Pete has chosen to dedicate the award to his dad, John Bridge, who sadly passed away this weekend. We’re keeping him and his family in our thoughts at this incredibly difficult time.

We’re also so proud of the way our team and community came together to support him – a real reflection of the people we’re lucky to have around us every day.

Congratulations as well to the winner of this category, our friends at J A Mackenzie Limited.

We recently supported the fantastic EMF Live Limited on a unique project for Canary Wharf Winter Lights 2026, craning a large flotation device into the water ahead of the festival, and returning once the event concluded to lift it safely back out. A great example of careful planning, teamwork and precision engineering over water.

This was the 10th anniversary of the Winter Lights event, and it’s always rewarding to play a behind‑the‑scenes role in bringing a major event like this to life. The team at EMF were a pleasure to work with!

We’re also delighted to share that our two newest starters have just passed their forklift licence accreditations - a great achievement for Stuart and Chris and a strong start to their journeys with us. 👏

A busy start to 2026, and we’re excited for what’s ahead!
