Recently at our Rail Solutions plant located in Somercotes, Derbyshire, the entire team were treated to a day of character building in recognition of the hard work and commitment shown by the team. The local leadership team wanted to give thanks so they planned a day at Wild Park in Derbyshire.

Together they enjoyed quad bikes and Jungle Laser Tag. After getting to grips with the dynamics of the quad bikes they had a fantastic time riding them on off road tracks and trails. With the Jungle Laser Tag experience, after an in-depth safety briefing, they went head-to-head in a few different fight scenarios.

Terence Clair, Business Manager, commented: “I believe it is important to give celebration and thanks for the great work we see every day by all the team at Somercotes. It is so easy to get lost in the daily challenges we face in business and life, but it is so important that we take the time to reflect, and that reflection can be done in so many ways. The team at Somercotes work exceptionally hard and help us achieve our daily targets and ensure we safely deliver a safety critical product on time every time. I am immensely proud of the team at Somercotes and it is right to recognise the commitment given each day”.

Terence Clair continues: “The day is also testimony of how we listen to our people, during our WE’X survey and feedback sessions this year, one of the key questions was about recognition. I’d like to thank everyone at Somercotes for a great team building day and for the continued commitment I see every day at Somercotes.”
