A partnership going strong for 22 years and counting 💫

We have signed a new contract with Northamptonshire Partnership Homes Connect to replace and maintain its 70-vehicle fleet taking our partnership to 2031 (over 27 years!).

Lee Burdett, Operations Manager, NPH - pictured with some of the new vehicles - commented:

“SFS understand our business requirements and our delivery model, and that stood out in their submission. Unlike other providers they have complete awareness of the importance of carrying out all servicing and maintenance out of hours. This means we can minimise vehicle downtime, plan our trade resources in advance and maximise our productivity, therefore providing a better service to our tenants. Their staff are always approachable, and they’ve built up great relationships with everyone across the organisation, including all the drivers. Put simply SFS adds value.”

We are delighted to announce our volunteering partnership with The Lewis Foundation, a charity that brings comfort and support to adult cancer patients by sourcing, packaging and hand-delivering free gift packs.

This marks the start of a longer-term relationship focused on practical support. Our colleagues will be able to contribute their time, skills and expertise in ways to help the charity reach more people.

Lorraine Lewis, Co-Founder and CEO, The Lewis Foundation: “This is an exciting new chapter for us, working with SFS to see what difference we can make together for the local community. It’s a huge support for us as a charity, and to the patients in hospital and their families, to know that their community cares.”
