At Celvac Environmental, supporting our local community is something we take seriously. As a business rooted in West Wales, we believe it’s important to give back to the towns, clubs, and organisations that support us throughout the year.

Over the past 12 months, we’ve been proud to support a wide range of local sports clubs, schools, charities, and fundraising events. Below is a snapshot of some of the community sponsorship and support we’ve been involved in this year.

Company Safety Stand Down Day!
On Friday 4th July, we held a company-wide Safety Stand Down Day at the Swansea.com Stadium — a fantastic opportunity to hit pause and focus on what really matters: the health, safety, and wellbeing of our team.

Our custom-built hyper-vac units offer a wide range of suction capabilities that can remove all sewerage derived litter in an efficient and effective manner and can access assets in some of the remotest and restricted locations.

Picturesque Tenby Harbour sits in a central position in the beautiful Georgian town of Tenby, often known as “The Jewel in Pembrokeshire’s crown”. Tenby has grown to become Pembrokeshire’s most popular tourist destination and the population can easily quadruple during the summer season with all its visitors. This brings its own challenges on the sewage infrastructure and so we were tasked to carry out confined space entry to clean the pumping station that supports the harbour’s visitors, fishing and boating community.

Celvac colleagues recently participated in the South Wales Safety Alliance Annual Conference. Topics discussed were how to maintain a culture of employee engagement, continuously improve and successfully manage change whilst never forgetting the fundamentals of safe working practices. Titled “Protecting People and Places – 50 years after the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974”, it was fascinating to learn the reasons around the introduction of the legislation whilst remembering some of the horrific safety incidents that led to many of the improvements that we now take for granted. There was a focus on building a sustainable future in our pursuit of Net Zero and also a look towards how AI can be deployed in the workplace to enhance our safe working systems. The conference finished with a great presentation by the DCWW team, sharing how they have improved wellbeing and mental health within their workplace. Supported by exhibitors demonstrating the latest HSEW products and services, we came away feeling motivated to apply new ideas and to continue to make Celvac a safe environment for everyone.

Being an employee owned business means that the decisions made by our senior leadership team need to be in the best interests of Celvac’s workforce, clients and the wider community. Sustainability is an over-riding objective and every quarter the Operating Board of Celvac reports to its Trust Board, presenting an update on recent performance and the achievement of company goals.
