What a fantastic time we have had at the official opening of the Yeo View building at North Devon District Hospital in Barnstaple!

We are immensely proud of Mike, Clive, Mark and the team who, alongside our supply chain partners, have delivered this fantastic, modern 3 storey workspace and office facility for key hospital staff.

Yeo View is the first major build of the "Our Future Hospitals" programme that promises to build a better hospital in North Devon that's meets the needs of the North Devon Community now and in the future.

WMS are pleased to have made a significant contribution to this programme and look forward to delivering more quality projects for our clients in the years to come!

Well done one and all!

Having recently completed refurbishment works at Coombefield Veterinary Practice WMS and our client continued to deliver on our Social Value Partnership initiative, this time for Ferne Animal Sanctuary.

Ferne Animal Sanctuary rescue rehabilitate and rehome or provide a home for life for domestic and farm animals, every year they rehome approx. 250 dogs/cats and have 300 resident animals at the sanctuary.

This year has been an extremely busy one for the sanctuary who launched an urgent appeal to help them through an unprecedented financial downturn knowing the winter will bring even more challenges.

We are proud to offer a little help to all the team at Ferne Animal Sanctuary as they continue the good work they have been doing since 1939!

What a fantastic morning we have had with Corner House Vets!

 Corner House Vets are real supporters of Devon Air Ambulance and who can blame them? What a fantastic choice!

We all hope not to need the services the Air Ambulance offer but what a job these people do day after day.

Thanks go to Vicky at Corner Vets and Lysianne of Devon Air Ambulance for their help and support in making this happen.

We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
