account the developments over the past year. The brochure is
intended to give existing and future clients a deeper insight into the

THS has been busy
with antenna installations (we received a very complimentary letter of
thanks due to our highly reactive service). Site maintenance has kept
Phil and Oliver busy, but not as busy as they are going to be!
Tower Maintenance, major microwave link installations and antenna
installations have all been programmed to take place through June, July
and August.

CDTS has been back at
school, with major works carried out at a leading private school in
York, the works have included fibre, copper, data cabinet installations

CDTS has also won a major support contract with a national company to
supply maintenance and disaster recovery services on their fibre systems
between strategic office locations.
CDTS is also installing a complete CAT6 structure wired solution for
major solicitors in the North of England. This is due for completion
along with the fibre, telephony and server room installations at the end
of June.

Festival Light Services
It might only be June but FLS has won the first two contracts of the
2006-2007 festival light season. FLS is looking to expand the
number of contracts from the 20 won in the 2005-2006 season. FLS
has already been tendering for new contracts within the North of England
area.
Health &
Safety/ Personnel
All staff have
completed the Risk Assessment course that has been designed around the
Charlestown Ltd “daily RA form”. All members of staff responsible for a
site now complete a daily risk assessment form that is signed by all
personnel. This reaffirms our ongoing commitment to safety.
One of our electricians (Chris) has decided to seek a new challenge and
has left Charlestown Ltd; we wish him all the best in his future
endeavours.
We would also like to welcome Nick, who has replaced Chris and has risen
to the challenge of joining Charlestown Ltd.
Light Hearted info
Of course no Charlestown Ltd Newsletter would be complete without a few
pictures from a restrained evening out...
We
do work hard and play hard at Charlestown Ltd.
The chaps took the 'Guess the weight of
the waiter' competition very seriously...
The colour drained from Richard's face
when he realised his home-made
bow-tie had short-circuited...
The
Marie Curie ball was held at the Cedar Court Bradford on the 25th
March. This annual charity ball raised much need funds for a
worthy cause. It also allowed Charlestown Ltd Staff and guests to enjoy
a night of good food, wine, dancing, conversation and dubious bow-ties!
The summer horseracing day has yet to be booked, but if the work
schedule permits, all staff will be out trying spot a winner in August,
(Venue to be decided).
Our next issue of “Connected” will be out in September; which will be
packed with news, views and events.
