Community and MP Join Us for a Thrilling ‘Moss Unveiled’ Open Day

Welcoming the Community and Local Leaders

We welcomed our newly elected MP, Ian Sollom, alongside local business heads, councillors, and community leaders to our ‘Moss Unveiled’ Open Day for a behind-the-scenes tour of our facilities, and a view on how we are paving the way in sustainability, apprenticeships and innovation.

A series of speakers from across the business presented the continuous improvement programme and apprenticeship opportunities that are part of our vision for the future. Our focus on sustainability is integral to our print and graphics operations and Managing Director Michael Green, Operations Director Mark Rose and Continuous Improvement Manager Lee Garnett outlined the strategy behind our desire to drive change across the events and exhibitions sector.

Engaging the Next Generation

A key part of our work on Environmental, Societal and Governance (ESG) has been the Early Career’s Ambassador team’s engagement with young people in the local community, attracting apprentices and trainees into this exciting sector. Working with local charity Inspire 2 Ignite and apprentice providers Learn2Print, we have taken on six apprentices and two trainees over the past few years, and received over 22 applicants for its last scheme!

Addressing Rural Challenges within the Community

As a rural business, we emphasised the need for good transport links to enable young people to take advantage of apprenticeships and this message was a clear takeaway for those attending. The event culminated with a tour of the facilities, showing visitors firsthand how cutting-edge practices, the latest print machines and investment in people, are making a lasting impact.

MP’s Praise and Our Commitment to ESG

Commenting on the event, Ian Sollom MP said, “It’s been a pleasure visiting Moss and hearing how a focus on sustainability has become fundamental to the business. That this focus is driving investment in local young people through a really successful approach to apprenticeship and trainee opportunities, as well as reductions in the environmental impacts of the business is particularly pleasing to hear. Moss is a great example of the difference local companies are making in St Neots and Mid Cambridgeshire.”

Michael Green added: “Sustainability is fundamental to all Moss’s global operations and today has been a fantastic opportunity to share how we are focusing on ESG in its widest sense. From innovation in materials and processes to investment in young people and apprenticeships, we are dedicated to offering sustainable and innovative solutions and sharing best practice locally and across our industry.”
