Excitement and anticipation levels were at fever pitch as WMS Managers, Site Supervisors, Administrators and Consultants from all 4 WMS offices (including Bideford, Chudleigh, Redruth and Yeovil) descended on the luxury 5 star Thurlestone Hotel nestled in the glorious Devonshire countryside - for this year’s WMS Christmas Party!

All guests and partners benefitted from the fantastic accommodation and hospitality synonymous with the Thurlestone, and is fair to say they didn’t disappoint, with the reception, evening meal after party and activities proving a roaring success!

We are rightly proud of our team at WMS with this the latest in a long list of events conducted over the festive period to celebrate our success!

Each and every one of our employees continues to contribute to the continued success and incremental growth of the business, this along with our collaborative, open and honest approach continues to bear fruit to the benefit of all!

Attached are some images of the evening, and what a fantastic evening it was! Roll on 2023!

WMS wish each and every one of you reading this feature  a peaceful prosperous and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

WMS have extended their support of local independent foodbanks by sponsoring Cornish based CPR Foodbank in Pool, Redruth!

Formed in 2010 by Donovan and Jenifer Gardner the foodbank  now has;

• 5 members of staff responsible for running the operation
• 60 volunteers supporting them each week
• 3 foodbanks operating across Cornwall
• 10,000 meals distributed each month (14-16,000 during the pandemic!)
• supported 370 families in last year’s Christmas Meal Campaign
• 15 local retailers donating surplus food to those in need.

Don continues to be massively involved in the day to day running and operations of the foodbank and can be seen here accepting a little gift from WMS we hope may help in some part!

Keep up the good work Don!

WMS are absolutely delighted at the response they have had to their WMS Christmas Jumper Day – raising over £1,020 for the Stroke Association!

Organised by our own Sascha Burnham all monies kindly donated by WMS employees were matched by Michael and Anthea, a fantastic gesture!

Well done Sascha! A credit to the business!

WMS continued celebrating the festive season over the weekend - with the Bideford office out on the town in Barnstaple painting the town red!

Enjoying a lovely meal and a few beers, wine and cocktails-  the team partied on in to the small hours using the old adage “work hard – play hard!”

These are special times for WMS as the business continues to say thank you to our teams for all their hard work and efforts in what’s been another fantastic year!

North Devon schoolgirl Tegan was thrilled to learn she had won the “WMS Guess The Pasta Challenge” just in time for Christmas!

Successfully guessing there were 458 pieces in the jar - Tegan takes home an Amazon voucher courtesy of WMS!

WMS Client Services Manager Steve Oakley said “counting the pasta pieces was a challenge in itself for us as I kept losing count! but fair play to Tegan she nailed it and is a worthy winner!”

Well done Tegan, have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from all your friends at WMS!

WMS were pleased to assist when a long standing client came to us with a set of particularly awkward circumstances they needed help with including possible road closures!

Faced with working on a split level property, with limited access and parking, sitting snuggly in a tight one way system on a main thoroughfare, WMS have come through with flying colours!

Faced with stripping the existing roof and replacing with new, full cavity wall insulation, application of the full Webber render system to the rear elevation and full external redecoration, this project has been completed with minimal disruption to residents and the wider community. 

Meticulous planning, phased scaffolding, delivery and collection times, sympathetic road closures, out of hours working and collaborative communication with all stakeholders have ensured a smooth roll out and delivery of this work, all completed on time, in full and to the delight of the client, WMS - your trusted contractor!
