Elddis were proud to receive an award at the United Kingdom Warehousing Association annual awards dinner, held in the Dorchester hotel earlier this month. The award was a Recognition of Excellence in Training and Education. Another great achievement by all of the team at Elddis
After nearly 8 years of supporting Willow Burn Hospice and over £150,000 raised by the company and its staff so far, Elddis today launched the latest fund raising initiative for this amazing charity. The NEW Willow Burn truck, a DAF rigid with the distinctive number plate W111OWH will deliver throughout the North East and on its rear doors will promote Willow Burns Sponsor a Nurse Campaign. In addition to this promotion Elddis have made a commitment to make a monthly donation to support this great cause.
