At the beginning of July we held an Open Day on site, followed by a Family Fun Day and Charity Football Match at the local football ground, Bedworth United Football Club.
We were delighted to welcome to both events a number of our VIP customers, local Members of Parliament and the Mayor of Nuneaton & Bedworth, Councillor Martin Walsh, as well as Alexander Kutsch, the Brose Group Chief Operating Officer for the European plants and Joerg Kraemer, Vice President Human Resources Europe/RoW.
Despite the typically British weather, everyone who attended the events seemed to be having a great time, including having a go at driving a robot made by pupils from King Henry VIII School’s world-beating Robotics Team which is sponsored by Brose, and watching performances by the dance team Crew Girls, which we also sponsor.
Our football match and other activities on the day raised £660 for our chosen charity Coventry and Warwickshire Mind, which supports people with mental health problems.
