Wade Legacy Programme continues for 2024

MEMBER NEWS

BPCA member company Wade Environmental will once again sponsor a son or daughter in a family-based team through their RSPH Level 2 Award in Pest Management.

This will be the third year of the programme being in effect. 

Wade Environmental offer to sponsor a son or daughter

Alex Wade, Director at Wade Environmental, said:

"I had the very great privilege to follow in the footsteps of my father into this industry.

"He spent decades, knowingly (and often unknowingly) teaching me all about this industry, through stories of his adventures abroad to the minutia of the science behind the tools that we employ.

"The joy of working with my father is one that I always cherish.

He continued, "With that when, Wade Environmental was founded, I made a pledge to myself and the industry, that for every year we remain operational, we will give one family unit the opportunity to continue to work and grow as a team, by funding the RSPH Level 2 qualifications for the newest addition to their family team.

"It's as simple as that! If you are a parent and child who wishes to start a business or continue their development within their business then apply today!"

Winners will be announced in a draw during the Wade Environmental end-of-year update video on 1 January 2024.

HOW TO ENTER

Alex and Jonathan will collect nominations throughout December 2023 and release the result in a random live draw in January.

You can make a nomination through the contact form on the Wade Environmental website or send it directly to Alex via email.
