Foyle Hospice 5k Walk-Run

We are very proud of our GES Ladies who completed the Foyle Hospice 5k Walk-Run on Sunday 11th June. Thank you to everyone that donated and well done ladies. #TeamGES

Charity Football Match

Well what a great match we had, worthy of top billing on MOTD

. Lots of sore legs (and heads), but all worth it with a fantastic amount of money raised for Foyle Foodbank.

A huge thank you to all who played, came to watch or donated and to our very own Kevin Radcliffe for all his hard work organising the event. #TeamGES

From Monday 24th April all work centres are now part of the 4-Day Working Week trial.

ISO Audit

Thanks to everyone for their help during the audit, it was really appreciated. We have achieved on-going H&S, Environmental and Quality ISO certification!

The final audit report and new certificates will be issued over the next few weeks.

4x minor NCR’s and 4x opportunities for improvement were raised by the auditor, who was impressed by the overall integration of the ISO management systems alongside the sustained growth and investment in the company.

Well done to everyone.

Starting on Monday 23rd January we will be trialling a 4-Day Working Week with the VMC operators (both shifts) for a period of 6 weeks. If successful we would then plan to implement it into other work centres in a phased approach.

On Friday 1st July, we visited The Lake Kilrea as part of a team-building event and had an amazing time.

It’s safe to say everyone slept soundly that night after an adrenaline fuelled hour of swimming, splashing and sliding about!
