We are very pleased and proud to share the news of a fantastic challenge being undertaken by our finance manager, Sam Wickens, who will cycle 450km in aid of women's cancer charities at the beginning of next year.

Stretching across Vietnam and Cambodia, the ride organised by Women V Cancer will be a long and demanding challenge for Sam, who is hoping to reach her fundraising target of £3,000 over the next two months. The funds will be split between three amazing, women's cancer charities, each of which provides much-needed support for women suffering with cancer.

If you would like to donate, both ourselves and Sam would be extremely grateful for any sponsorship support that you would be able to offer to this incredibly worthwhile cause. Full details about the cycle ride, along with sponsorship information, can be found on Sam's Just Giving page here:

We are happy to announce that we have added yet another high-quality safety harness to our selection, in the form of the C72WFA VOLT WIND by PETZL. This innovative harness is aimed specifically at workers in the wind power industry, and is designed to meet the demands of their work, while maintaining optimum safety and movement.
 
Thanks to the EASYFIT design of the harness, its first selling point is that it is extremely easy to get into, while also being highly comfortable to wear throughout the day. This is also assisted by the harness' LADDER CLIMB attachment, which allows ventral attachment of the fall-arrest trolley, for continued comfort throughout the progression.
 
The most useful and innovative of this harness' variety of features, however, are the wear protectors, which are included on the waistbelt and under the dorsal point. This limits strap wear when moving about inside the turbine tower, for lasting and hard-wearing protection against damage, for continued safety.
 
For a full demonstration of this product's many benefits, see the video below:
 
 

As well as this innovative safety harness, we also stock a range of other height safety products from PETZL. This includes everything from Karabiners to protective helmets, along with a selection of other high-quality harnesses, which are designed for ultimate comfort and safety.

If you're looking for a safe and versatile lifting solution that will help to improve working efficiency, then a lifting magnet could be the ideal choice for your operation. Unlike other lifting attachments, lifting magnets have a simple securing and attachment process, which means that the lifting application can be initiated quickly, with half the hassle of other lifting solutions. This reduction in attachment processes also means that operation becomes safer for workers, while reducing the chance of causing unnecessary damage to the item being lifted.
 
Here at SafetyLiftinGear, we have a great selection of magnetic lifting devices, with options to suit a variety of lifting demands. Our range of permanent lifting magnets are an ideal choice for magnetic materials of 2000kg and under, without the need for any additional power. Thanks to the compact design of these lifting magnets, they are incredibly easy to transport, making them a flexible and reliable choice for a on-site lifting.
 
The most highly-capable of our lifting magnets is the 2000kg model, which can be bought or hired here, with a 2 year warranty for additional reliability.
 
In addition to permanent lifting magnets, which can be used with magnetic materials such as iron blocks or cylinder components, we also supply vacuum slab lifters, which provide powerful, cordless suction for stone lifting. These lifters are ideal for laying large stone slabs, and other concrete elements, and are also compatible with a number of lifting devices, for added versatility. Thanks to the rechargeable battery, which has the ability to last for an entire working day, this device is also ideal for on-site lifting, in a range of environments.

The weather has been getting slightly colder over the last couple of weeks, and as we draw closer to the end of the year, that chill in the air is only going to grow more and more noticeable. Coats and jumpers are already out in force on the streets of Britain, so make no mistake: wrap-up-warm season has arrived!

If you and/or your employees work outdoors, you'd be well-advised to order some work clothing that's designed for cold conditions, and to order it sooner rather than later. Our sister site SafetyLifeGear.co.uk has a great range of workwear for this time of year, including a variety of warm, high-quality work fleeces. As with most of the items sold on the SafetyLifeGear website, all of these fleeces can be customised to include your corporate logo or another design of your choosing, so you know that your workers will still look smart and professional while they're bundled up during the colder months.

Here are just a few of the options on offer:

Portwest Argyll Heavy Fleece

Available in 7 different colours (black, green, blue, navy, red, dark grey, light grey), this heavy fleece locks in the heat and keeps you cosy in biting conditions.

Portwest Ladies' Fleece

This fleece is designed specifically for female workers and comes in three different colours: red, blue, and navy.

Hi-Vis Portwest Iona Fleece

If you need to stay warm AND be seen, this hi-vis fleece is the ideal choice. Available in black and navy, it features a hi-vis stripe to ensure that you're visible in even poor weather conditions.
