I’ve been working for Cranswick for 11 years now, starting in Technical as a QA at Preston, progressing to Supervisor and then Compliance Officer. I then moved to one of our Poultry sites, before progressing to Night Shift Manager at Riverside.

I’m really proud of our water usage reduction project - in December 2020 we used 2.9m litres of water. With the commitment and engagement of the team, we made a major reduction in January 2021 to 1.8m litres! We changed our practices and changed equipment, for example, water guns that use less water and updated hand wash basin release buttons. The biggest contributor has been buy-in from our colleagues. They have taken the challenge and have exceeded all our expectations!

Second Nature has really made a difference here at site, with colleagues excited about the projects and being more conscious with lighting and heating at home – I’ve found myself doing the same. The projects are not just improving the environment by reducing carbon and waste onsite but are having a ripple effect throughout the community as well.”
