Hi, I know Next were looking at a retired athlete training their warehouse staff in manual handling and the person claimed to be able to teach anyone to lift anything safely no matter its shape, weight etc. when I left in 2007. I will see what I can find out as I still have contacts in health and safety there.

He was very good and got the point across, but was not totally aware of being PC.(The company I worked for at the time was).

They are owned by a former Olympic Weight Lifter and seem to have some large contracts selling Manual Handling to companies such as Boots, Royal Bank of Scotland, Pickfords, Nestle, Homebase, Balfour Beatty but to name a few. I would be interested in feedback from anyone who has had personal involvement with them, good or bad. Kind regards Allison~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please remove this footer before replying.
