Leading painting and decorating group of companies names Caudwell Children as charity
partner The Roseville Group, a specialist sub-contracting painting and decorating company with offices in Billericay, in Essex, and Dubai, has named Caudwell Children as one of its charity partners for 2015. The Group, which has recently established its own charitable Foundation,
chose Caudwell Children because of the unprecedented levels of practical and emotional support that it provides to disabled children and their families. Social
Responsibility is an integral part of the organisation and the Group’s Rose Charitable Foundation, not only raises vital funds for a number of charitable causes but also sponsors individual achievement. They help, encourage and support those who look to improve themselves through education, sport and personal development. Trudi Beswick, Chief Executive of Caudwell Children, said: “We are delighted
that The Roseville Group has chosen Caudwell Children as one of their charity partners for the forthcoming year. They are committed to supporting us through the delivery of, and participation in, a number of exciting fundraising challenges. They have also agreed to attend the Butterfly Ball, our annual, headline, fundraising event taking place in London in June.” This year The Roseville Group’s calendar of events includes the Brighton
Marathon and The Rose Rally, a 1,000 mile round trip of the South Coast of England in a two door, pre 1985, car.
Trade Skills 4U Launch Electrical
Courses in Central London The UK’s leading electrical training provider Trade Skills 4U have taken further steps towards national coverage by launching courses in central London. Students can now attend PAT testing and 17th edition courses from their new Cannon Street facility that is a stones throw from St Pauls Cathedral. Trade Skills 4U already service the London area from their Gatwick head office,
however it was felt that some of their customers would prefer to remain within the Central London area. As such, Trade Skills 4U set the wheels in motion to find the ideal facilities in which they could deliver their courses. The facility had to meet a number of requirements to match the standards of the Crawley branch and thank goodness they found an ideal venue in the Centre of London on Cannon Street. Like all of Trade Skills 4U facilities the Cannon street branch is bright, modern, comfortable and airy.
The facility
provides students with visual learning using interactive white boards and comfortable sofas for hot drinks for relaxing in between classes. CEO Carl
Bennett Said: “We knew that central London was a slightly different proposition to our other facilities. We usually offer free parking but in Central London it is all about public transport. We are very lucky to have found a venue which fits with our standards and are already delivering the very latest 17th edition and PAT testing courses there.”
