LPG Fuel Safety Alert

LPG Fuel Safety Alert

If you have LPG (Liquefied petroleum gas) powered forklift trucks in your operations, then you need to be aware that there is a currently ongoing safety concern with the fuel in the UK.

The HSE are currently investigating the problems, which seem to occur when starting the trucks and may be linked to contaminated fuel entering the UK.

The UK Material Handling Association has recently updated its Safety Alert addressing these concerns. For more information about the problem please visit https://ukmha.org.uk/ukmha-releases-lpg-safety-alert/

Please note this is an ongoing situation and therefore it continues to pose a risk to all LPG fueled trucks, irrespective of manufacturer. If you have any problems starting an LPG truck, then download the safety advice brochure for the best course of action, for your operators and engineers.

We will keep you updated on this issue as more updates become available.

Awards Update

So, it’s officially the end of awards season, and we were so proud to be finalists in 2 awards this year.

We were finalists in the 2023 South West Business Masters Awards, in the category of “Community impact”.

We were delighted to attend the awards dinner in Bristol on Thursday 9th November at the Bristol Harbour Hotel, and although we didn’t win, we were honoured to be in the same shortlist as SWIG Finance, a fantastic not-for-profit company providing loans to South West SMEs and start-ups. A worthy winner.

We also met some lovely people from Lush Cosmetics and RAW Food and Drink PR who were on our table, and were so happy to cheer one of our customers, Limbs and Things, as they celebrated their wins on the night, including Margot Cooper, their founder being named as South West Business Ambassador.

We were also finalists at the SME National Business Awards, in the category “Positive Impact”. We were delighted to attend the awards dinner at the iconic Wembley Stadium on the evening of Friday 1st December 2023, which was a fantastic event.

This year was a record number of entries into the SME National Business Awards, so reaching the finals was no easy feat! Given our humble stature, we were again honoured to be considered in the same category as ACF Technologies UK, who were the eventual worthy winners.

It’s been an incredible year for us, and we’ve been very fortunate to celebrate our achievements with such a lovely group of like-minded companies and friendly people.

Here’s to 2024, and fingers crossed it’s equally as exciting!

Payl8r believe in fairer ways to assess affordability. Using Open Banking and your Credit File, they base decisions on what you can afford, not just your credit history.

Subject to credit and affordability assessments, application fees may apply. Rep Example: If you borrow £200 over 12 months at a fixed monthly interest rate of 4% and an annual rate of 48% and representative annual percentage rate of 127.34% You will pay: Monthly payment: £24.66. Total repayment: £295.92 Total charge for credit: £95.92. Missed payments may affect your credit file, future borrowing and incur fees.

Jobs Fair Update

We were delighted to attend the Swindon Jobs Fair, at Swindon Town Football Club’s County Ground yesterday. A huge thanks to the organisers #thejobfairs who ran another slick event.

We had a fantastic day and met lots of really lovely people all looking for that opportunity to find the right job.

We showcased our training products and were able to talk to people about how our forklift training could help people create a pathway to employment.

We were also delighted to be able to support Seetec Pluss’s new Work & Health Programme – Pioneer. This incredible new scheme enables people who are economically inactive to attend a drop-in session, running on Thursdays, with no appointment or referral from a job coach. If you are eligible, you may qualify for funding for your training.

We were also able to invite people to our next Forklift Friday taster session, running on Friday 1st December. This gives people a chance to try forklift driving, met the trainers and chat to us about your experience and needs, in a relaxed setting.

For more information about this, please visit https://keyperformancetraining.co.uk/forklift-friday/

We’re looking forward to attending the upcoming job fairs in 2024, and helping more people into work.
