Ring Carnation,
the Leeds-based supplier of specialist control, power and lighting products for
vehicle converters, has donated a state-of-the-art genisys™ system, the industry-leading switching and power management system for
specialist vehicles, to HollybankTrust.
Joining long-standing
client Treka, the team donated time and resource to Hollybank Trust to support
the launch of a brand-new mobility bus. The bespoke genisys™ system, providing state of the art safety features, was installed in
the custom-built bus.
Mirfield-based Hollybank
Trust provides care, support and education to over 120 babies, children and
adults with multiple and profound difficulties at its special school and
nursery, residential homes and daytime activity programmes.
The brand-new bus
will allow the organisation to deliver additional care to those living across
the South and West Yorkshire communities. It will also allow staff to take residents
and services users on day trips and to routine appointments and interact more
with the local community.
Richard Yates,
Divisional Director for Ring Carnation, comments: “After receiving a call from
Treka asking us to support the Hollybank Trust we jumped at the chance to get
involved. We’ve worked with the charity on numerous occasions and were more
than happy to donate our products to a truly worthy cause.
“The service they
deliver is invaluable for those that rely on the organisation. The genisys™ system we have donated is a token of our appreciation for the work
they do and will allow them to continue for many years to come.”
Harry Clouth,
Senior Fundraiser, comments: “Everybody at
Hollybank Trust would like to thank Ring Carnation for the generous donation
and for the work they have done for us in the past. It is really important that
we get out into the local community and that we have the facilities required to
support our service users. This new bus will make all of the difference. We
can’t wait to get on the road to show it off!”
Designed initially
for the emergency services industry, a genisys™ system ensures that power is available for critical vehicle functions
by managing power distribution throughout the vehicle.
