What a month it's been!
We kicked off October in style, the Cross Plant Team dressed in our best 80s and 90s costumes celebrated Jennie's 30th birthday 🥳
There was also some brilliant news for Katy, who was announced as one of the North West's Insider Media's 42 under 42 for 2026! Katy had the opportunity to attend a roundtable in Manchester, followed by a celebration dinner and drinks. A fantastic and well-deserved recognition! 🥂
Connor and James headed to Highways UK, catching up on the latest developments and innovations across the industry.
We also celebrated work anniversaries for Phil and Aaron. Thank you both for everything you bring to the Cross Plant Hire team! 👏
Giving back was also on the agenda, as Katy, Connor and Allie took part in a quiz night for Bury Hospice, Team Fingers CROSSed came away with an impressive 3rd place! 🥉
And of course, we couldn't finish October without a little Halloween fun in the office. From spooky decorations and treats to creating some frightfully good content, it was a great way to round off the month! 🎃 👻
October also brought a real change in the weather. With the clocks going back, darker nights and wetter conditions are becoming part of everyday site life!
It's the time of year when keeping sites prepared becomes even more important, whether that's managing mud with our wheel wash systems, keeping welfare areas cleaner with boot wash stations, or ensuring fuel, water and hazardous materials are stored safely and securely throughout the changing weather.
Here's to a busy October and an even bigger November! 🍂🌨️
