APS -EARTH HOUR DAY

In support of Earth Hour 2010, staff at Mechanical & Electrical Contractors, APS, ditched their formal work wear & held a "wear it bright day". The event was held the day before the Word Wildlife Fund's earth hour 2010 where individuals & organisations all over the globe, in an effort to save co2 and draw attention to it's effect on global warming, switched their lights off for 1 hour on Saturday 27th March at 8.30pm. APS staff raised over £250 for the cause by making a donation to wear their own "bright" clothes for the day. Richard Basnett from the company said "APS recently gained ISO14001 accreditation in recognition of its efforts to reduce the environmental impact of it's operations, so supporting a cause like this is easy as it lies close to our core values in terms of the environment & sustainability. APS was formed in 1994 and carries out a wide range of mechanical & electrical services throughout the UK.
