Support for safe shopping | 26/10/2010
Culham Centre for Fusion Energy has taken its safe working message into the community by purchasing safety equipment for a popular Oxford farmers' market.
The East Oxford Farmers' & Community Market is a weekly, non-profit making community market. It sells fresh food from within a 30-mile radius of Oxford, supporting small local producers and enabling shoppers to buy ecologically sound and healthy products.
CCFE was delighted to help out when the market needed a number of safety-related items, such as cable mats, lifting trolleys and extension cables.
CCFE's David Homfray, who organised the link-up with the market, said:
'The farmers' market has become an institution in east Oxford so it was great that CCFE could support it. Even better, it fits in well with our ethos of working safely, which is fundamental to everything we do at Culham.'
