Earlier this year our Managing Director, Gerald McDonald, was approached with an enquiry from Veteran Stone for our training services. discussing training Gerald was touched by Lee Ellerkers company’s mission.
Veteran Stone’s story began when Lee, being a veteran soldier himself, set off to work on a jet washing job when he saw a fellow veteran who had found himself in need of a little help. Distressed by what he saw, Lee offered him a days’ paid work alongside himself to which the gentleman accepted. The job was a great success and this gave Lee an idea.
Lee saw an opportunity of how he can give back and help more veterans. Hence the name Veteran Stone Ltd. Veteran Stone provides commercial cleaning services in Yorkshire whilst giving veterans a route to employment. Lee’s staff have always been and will continue to be the heart of his business, and the more that Veteran Stone grows the more veterans Lee can help along the way.
All businesses need highly trained staff for them to grow successfully and be sustainable. Gerald decided that Lee’s training was for such a good cause, he agreed to waive the training cost on behalf of Hydroblast. Lee passed his WJA training consisting of two modules with flying colours. Well done!
All the best Lee from everyone at Hydroblast Ltd, we hope to see you again in 3 years for your refresher training! If you would like to discuss how Hydroblast can help you get your business moving with our high-quality training, please get in touch on 01677 424 542 or sales@hydroblast.co.uk.
