15 Dec Christmas Reflections 2025 🎄
As the year draws to a close, we want to take a moment to reflect on what has been a challenging, rewarding, and ultimately uplifting year for Training and Testing Services.
A Year of Gratitude
Above all else, 2025 has been a year of thankfulness. We are incredibly grateful to have seen the return of Richard Sunderland. After experiencing a massive heart attack and facing a long and uncertain road to recovery, Richard began a phased return to work in the spring. We are now pleased to share that he is increasing his hours to four days a week.
This milestone is a far cry from where we were a year ago, when it was not even certain that Richard would survive. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the amazing NHS, the expert care team at Harefield Hospital, and most of all to Richard’s sheer determination and resilience, which have made this recovery possible.
Delivering Quality Training and Testing Nationwide
Our team has been exceptionally busy throughout the year, delivering high-quality, accredited training and testing services across the UK. Highlights from 2025 include:
- BAF Accredited Abrasive Wheel Training – both Operator and Train the Trainer courses
- fit2fit Approved Training – Qualitative and Quantitative Train the Tester programmes
- Deployment of our fit2fit Accredited Testers, covering locations from Cornwall to Inverness
In addition, our training team successfully renewed their fit2fit and BAF accreditations this year. This allows us to confidently demonstrate that our services are not only competent, but fully compliant with current standards.
Thank You
As we reflect on the year, we would like to thank our customers, both old and new, for their continued trust and support. We are equally grateful to the network of testers we have worked alongside throughout the year. It has truly been a pleasure working with you all.
Charity Donation
As we do every year, we have made a charitable donation in lieu of Christmas cards. This year we have continued our ongoing support of Yorkshire Aid Convoy. We made a donation to their Yorkshire Aid Christmas Convoy. In addition to this we also joined the trip to deliver Christmas presents and food hampers to the orphans, elderly and under priveledged families that the charity support in Ukraine.
Christmas Break
After a busy and productive year, our team will be taking some well-earned time off over the Christmas period to rest, recharge, and spend time with loved ones.
Our office will close at 5pm on Monday 22 December and reopen again at 9am on Monday 5 January 2026.
From all of us, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy New Year. We look forward to working with you again in 2026.
