It's become a bit of a tradition here At Stocksigns that every year we take on a new challenge for a different charity. At the moment as it stands, we have the green light on the road map to start planning/training for our next event. Last year we hiked the Surrey hills in our little socially distanced bubbles and walked just over 24 miles. We hoped to raise £3342 as that was the total of the elevation for the walk. Read More

Instead some of us will lose Read More
Slips and trips and falls can be the most dangerous risk when working. In fact, they are the most common cause of injury at work. Slips, trips and falls cause over one third of injuries at work, and account for over half of injuries in workplaces with public access. This makes hazard signage a vital part of any workplace.

PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) is a vital part of working on a construction site, quarry, or in a potentially hazardous area.

PPE signage can be crucial to ensuring that workers are protected from falling objects, slips Read More

Ladders, scaffolding and entries/exits to sites can become extremely dangerous if the proper precautions aren’t taken. Increasing awareness amongst workers of all immediate risks is a vital part Read More
