Thank you to everyone who has donated/sponsored towards this fantastic cause. Although we have hit our target please continue to donate, all funds raised over the target amount will go towards Compton Hospice.

Paul Cranshaw sadly passed away on 18th February 2014 after a long fight with cancer. Paul joined Craig and Derricott in 1999 and has helped to steer the company through difficult and successful times in equal measure.

Throughout his time at C&D he has earned a reputation for professionalism, perseverance and a passion for great customer service working with people inside and outside the company to ensure the best possible results. Over the years he has supported and helped many of us - nothing was too much trouble and I have no doubt that his hard work and commitment contributed substantially to our growth and success as well as to the careers and development of many company staff.

It has been our privilege to know and work with Paul and he will be deeply missed by all of us. Compton Hospice is where Paul spent his last few days. Paul enjoyed his running and he participated in the Aldridge run in previous years (2011 & 2012), we feel this would be a fitting tribute to him, therefore some of the Craig and Derricott employees will be taking part in either a 5k or 10k run on Sunday the 8th of June 2014. All funds raised will go directly to Compton Hospice.
