Jolly Crofters Fundraising Team

20th January 2012

Today Phil Lomax and Brian Winstanley, carpet fitters, from Milliken Industrials Ltd, Beech Hill Plant, Wigan visited the Team HQ at Ladybridge Hall to lay new carpet tiles to the main lecture room and the office areas.




Team members Paul Copley & Dave Marsh along with Vice President Tony McNally take up old tiles

The tiles were very generously given by Milliken Ind. Ltd and the Team is once again truly grateful for their donation (which replaces tiles from their original gift) and to Kath Thompson, Senior Production Manager at the Beech Hill Plant for all her help in facilitating this gift. Special thanks also to Phil and Brian who laid the tiles in their own time and without pay. Indeed they will return in the near future to lay more tiles in the kitchen/storeroom area.

Much of the area had been cleared on Thursday afternoon and evening by team members and members of the support group, many of whom also came on Friday to complete the task and put furniture back.
