We recently took a trip over to Penshurst Primary in Hessle to meet their Year 4's and bring to life how we connect our customers to our ultrafast full fibre network 👷♀️🔧 The children loved meeting our engineers, trying on our PPE and learning how we continue to stay strong to our pioneering roots. #engineering #STEM #broadband #school #KCOM

Last week we held a Safety Awareness Day for our KCOM engineers to learn all about connection, learning, and collaboration! 🧡 We’ve gathered our engineers to not only focus on safety but also to catch up, share ideas, and strengthen our teamwork. With expert insights from our suppliers and guest speakers, the goal is for everyone to walk away with something valuable—even a 1% improvement can make a huge difference in our safety and performance 🚀 If you attended the event, comment below one thing you learnt. #engineering #dayinthelife #healthandsafety #awareness Arco: Experts In Safety Rod Silvers (Talk Shop Ltd)

We recently hosted our second ‘Day in the Life of an Engineer’ sessions, following the huge success of last month’s events! 🙌 These sessions give our employees valuable insights into the work our engineers do in the field and how it connects to their own roles.
