Yesterday, Zoe and the Uttoxeter warehouse team had a lovely visit from Chloe (pictured) from Briggs Equipment for the official handover of the fork lift truck, donated to Krizevac by Briggs. Chloe had a look around our warehouse and got a chance to see first hand exactly how much lifting our willing volunteers do in order to get all the bikes, books and seeing machines to Africa. “The forklift saves so much back breaking work” explained Zoe, “I can’t imagine how we ever managed without one”. We’d like to say a huge thank you to the team at Briggs, who are providing ongoing support with maintenance and servicing for the fork lift.
