Congratulations to David Bennett (pic above) who completed 40 years service on the 10th May.  Dave started his career at Aylesford Quarry in May 1976 where he worked with his father on the Quarry shovel driving, and working on the Aggregate Plant and Drying/Bagging Plants.

In May 2012 Aylesford Quarry was closed and Dave then came across from Aylesford Quarry to Northfleet Wharf as the Plant Fitter.  Michael Hinson, Manager at Northfleet, commented: “Dave, Northfleet Wharf Aggregate Plant would not be where it is today without your valuable input. The Plant is in good shape and you look after it to a high standard so thank you for all your efforts.

All the best for the future Dave and I look forward to working with you for another 15 years.”

Dave is not sure what he is going to purchase with his £1,500.  Many thanks again for all your hard work over the last 40 years.
