Next week, several members of the CO Retail Network will attempt to conquer the Brecon Beacons in aid of the MND Association

After tackling the Welsh 3000s and the National Three Peaks in recent years, our team is taking on the fearsome range in South Wales that's home to some of the toughest British Army training challenges.

If it's good (and tough) enough for the Army, it's perfect for us!

And for this year's challenge, we've picked the MND Association to help make every day matter and support the outstanding work they do.

We're aiming big. Over the years, we've raised north of £65,000 for various charities, and we want to keep that positive momentum rolling as we rock up in Merthyr Tydfil next week.

This Friday marks the launch of the We Are Wakefield Manufacturing Forum, and we’re proud to be part of it.

Our Group Head of HR, Karen Starkey, will be chairing the inaugural session at Nostell Priory, helping bring together manufacturers from across the Wakefield district to connect, collaborate and share best practice.

Initiatives like this play an important role in strengthening the local manufacturing community, creating space for open discussion, shared learning and collective progress.

We’re looking forward to supporting the Forum and contributing to its future development.

If you’re a manufacturer in the region and want to be part of the conversation, it’s well worth getting involved!
