ASAMS Celebrates 30 Years of Metal Testing
Great Yarmouth based ASAMS Ltd has celebrated 30 years of metal testing at The Cliff Hotel, Gorleston, with around 100 staff, clients and suppliers.

Director Thomas Whiskin, who has been with the business for the last 10 years, said "We are proud of what we have achieved for our clients. We continue to invest in the development of our staff so we can achieve our expansion plans and provide consistently high levels of service".

Continued support for Nelson's Journey
As Nelson's Journey, the child bereavement service for Norfolk, continues to be ASAMS' charity of the year, the celebration was combined with the Purple Picnic fundraising week.
"We are so pleased that ASAMS combined their 30th birthday party with our Purple Picnic week fundraising initiative. Nelson's Journey can only continue to help the increasing number of bereaved children in Norfolk requiring support with the financial contributions of business and the local community", said Simon Wright, CEO, Nelson's Journey, who attended the celebration.
Annual UKAS Accreditation
The annual UKAS accreditation will be taking place on Thursday 29 August so please arrange for any urgent testing to arrive prior to this date.

Developing the Next Generation
ASAMS were pleased to have Mia Steward from Ormiston Venture Academy for a week's work experience. Mia was shown a range of tests that ASAMS conducts and introduced to the procedures followed to ensure accuracy and tracability.
Rahul Wadher, Metallurgist and STEM ambassador, said "It was great having Mia here and being able to show her some of the work we carry out. We at ASAMS believe it is important to spread the word to students about the range of opportunities within STEM industries." Mia said "I enjoyed my time with ASAMS and was introduced to a side of engineering I was not aware of."
