Author: Ben  |  Leave a Comment >>

Conservatory Outlet helped its staff make one of the toughest New Year’s resolutions by funding an Allen Carr’s Easyway to Stop Smoking day.

Factory staff and office staff from the Wakefield-based fabricator attended the one day seminar on the 5th January which was held at Wakefield Trinity Wildcats RLFC.

Allen Carr’s Easyway to Stop Smoking is internationally renowned and endorsed by celebrities such as Richard Branson, and corporations such as Ford, Microsoft and Unilever. Conservatory Outlet decided to host their seminar after Sales Director Greg Kane successfully gave up smoking thanks to Easyway.

Thirty people from the company’s 75-strong workforce benefitted from the session which Greg Kane described as a way of rewarding staff in the short and long term. ‘A lot of people would like to stop smoking but doing so can be very difficult for a number of reasons, be it time, money or finding a method that…

West Yorkshire Windows Light Up Local Man’s Life

Author: Ben  |  Leave a Comment >>

West Yorkshire Windows, Conservatory Outlet and Custom Glass collectively came to the rescue of a 91-year-old man who had been without windows in the front of his house for almost two years.

The man’s house in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, had been subject to continued vandalism by youths from the area. When the single glazed windows at the front of the house were smashed in 2010, the local victim support charity were only able to board the windows up, leaving the living room, main bedroom and bathroom with no natural light.

Following further vandalism at the property earlier this year, PC Chris Schofield of West Yorkshire Police decided to go beyond the call of duty by appealing to local businesses that could potentially help to repair the victim’s home and improve the quality of his life.

‘It seemed that the young people in the area thought it was ok to vandalise…
