EARLIER this month the team at Acorn Analytical Services was delighted to welcome the Deputy Mayor of Wolverhampton, Councillor Dr Michael Hardacre and the Deputy Mayoress, Lynn Plant to the opening of our new asbestos management office in Wolverhampton.
It was a very proud day for regional manager, Lewis Scott and his team, and Acorn’s directors, who are bringing investment and the prospect of new jobs to the region as Acorn continues to expand into the West Midlands.
The event was also a fitting way to kick-off a year of celebrations for Acorn Analytical Services which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year.
Acorn Analytical Services: A trusted partner in the fight against asbestos
Speaking at the opening, which including a traditional ribbon cutting ceremony and plenty of tea and cake, regional manager, Lewis Scott said: “Since opening in Northampton in 2013, Acorn Analytical Services has continued to go from strength to strength, supporting thousands of businesses, charities and organisations across the UK, helping to educate them about the hidden dangers of asbestos and giving them the information and support they need to ensure it is managed safely and efficiently.
“We have become a trusted partner in many of the communities we serve, helping to make public buildings including schools and hospitals safer, while continuing to raise awareness of mesothelioma – the cancer caused by exposure to asbestos fibres, among members of the public.
“The opening of this new office marks the start of an exciting new chapter for Acorn enabling us to reach new communities across the West Midlands in need of our support, and will allow us to forge strong, new relationships with businesses across the region.”
‘Acorn’s commitment to the asbestos industry is to be commended’
Councillor Dr Hardacre said: “Your commitment and dedication to the asbestos industry in the UK is to be commended and we are particularly impressed with your investment in our region which will create much-needed, skilled jobs and apprenticeships.
“We wish you well in all your endeavours but particularly in the work you do to help make our city safer – protecting people from the dangers of asbestos and mesothelioma which we understand can affect anyone.
“Through your work, you are helping to put the city of Wolverhampton on the map and building strong relationships within our business community. We look forward to watching your business grow and we wish you every success for the future.”
