Westgrove expands into the South
To head up our continued expansion into the South, we have recruited a new Business Development Director.
Adrian Canale, who has worked extensively in facilities management across a range of sectors, has been appointed to support our continued business development and also bring the company into new sectors including education and healthcare.

Mental Health Awareness Week
Mental Health is something that Westgrove believes strongly in, which is why we were delighted with the success of our recent Awareness Week.
During the week, we sent out daily advice and information to our colleagues to help build awareness of mental health and offer advice.
Over 50% of colleagues trained via our online eLearning course during the week and we received some great feedback.
Look out for more Mental Health Awareness Days, fundraising activities and do ask about our eLearning course.
Did you know?
We are proud to have been accredited as a Living Wage Recognised Service Provider. This means we work with our Partners to recommend that they pay the Real Living Wage of £9 per hour (£10.55 in London), rather than the National Living Wage of £8.21.
New Colleague Engagement Survey
Hearing from our colleagues is extremely important to us. This year, we are asking what you think on a quarterly basis.
Look out for the link coming soon to our third Colleague Engagement Survey. This new survey focuses on Health & Safety.
The results of our first two surveys will be appearing in the new issue of the Westgrove Magazine, out soon.
