“We’re committed to ensuring we offer customers the highest possible standards which is why we invest in our people

Frank Smith and Tommy Gill have been praised after bolstering their skills by completing a new starter refrigeration course at Ellis Training in Hertfordshire.  

Daniel West, Director at Campbell West, said: “We’re committed to ensuring we offer customers the highest possible standards which is why we invest in our people, so they’re equipped with the very latest skills and expertise. Steven and I are both products of the apprenticeship system which we still see as key to maintaining the company’s growth. So, we’re delighted Frank and Tommy did Campbell West proud by passing this challenge with flying colours and they will enhance our air-conditioning service.”
