Thank you Josh MacAlister OBE, MP for Whitehaven and Workington, for visiting West Cumberland Engineering's Derwent Howe facility last Friday. It was our pleasure to demonstrate the critical high-integrity manufacturing projects being undertaken for companies such as Sellafield Ltd, as well as the investments in innovations that are streamlining our off-site manufacturing capabilities and maintaining our impeccable Right First Time rates.

Josh met some of the senior leadership team at Shepley Group, including Gavin Jakubowski, Callum Woodend and Trudy Harrison, and was impressed to hear of our investment in local skills, creating lasting opportunities across West Cumbria.

Employing hundreds of local people, including 90 apprentices, and boasting 10,000m² of workshop space across Lillyhall and Workington, we are one of the county’s largest local engineering companies. It was positive to discuss our ambition for growth in volume manufacturing and how, together with our wider engineering, mechanical, electrical and commissioning capabilities across Shepley Group, we are working with clients and supply chains to deliver greater value while reinforcing mutual benefits across our community.

This success demonstrates not only the quality of our systems, but also the consistency and dedication of generations of employees who have contributed to maintaining these standards year after year.

Following a comprehensive review of management systems, operational processes and production activities across our multiple...
