AGM 2011 - Racing Ahead!

Its that time again! and the AGM 2010/11 shows once more that Beacon is in the fast lane of success!. Under "starters orders" the AGM kicked off with an evening meal that was hosted by The Terrace restuarant in Tavistock. As always the meal is a chance for all the staff old and new from up and down the country to relax and take a "Pit Stop" away from the busy office environment and often a good way to put a face to a name!.

The following morning was started with the yearly round up and followed by several workshops and seminars, of particular note this year was of course the successful move of our Southwest HQ to bigger premises and the implentation and roll out of Atlas our new business system.

New to Beacon this year marks the introduction of "Step Up Days" these are set days where the company will step up for it's employees and vice versa. This can take many guises, whether it is doing something for charity, something for the company or simply something to help their colleagues

After lunch was our Beacon Karting Tournament where the "G Forces"  are let loose again with hilarious results.
