The day was dedicated to reflecting on our achievements, looking ahead to the year to come and celebrating the winners of our Beyond Cleaning Awards 2026.
Supplier & Charity Showcase
The day began with our Supplier Showcase, giving colleagues the chance to connect with the partners who help us deliver for our clients every day. Our supply partners Bunzl, Simply Washrooms, Recorra, Wessex and Pego shared their latest products, innovations and services, from sustainable washroom solutions to new technology for our teams on site.
We were also joined by our charity partners, Grove Cottage and Heartburn Cancer UK, who spoke to colleagues about the vital work they do and how we can continue to support them.
Company Update
After lunch, Lee and Jamie shared our company update, reflecting on the past year’s achievements and challenges and setting out our priorities for the future. The session also looked at how we can keep growing and improving together, guided by our values: Do the right thing, Own it, and Collaborate.
