A TAUNTON man is celebrating 25 years working for a family-run fun.

Andy Parkhouse has been with air filter manufacturing and services company Jasun Envirocare, on Parrett Way, Bridgwater, since July 1997.

"I am thrilled to be celebrating such a milestone and would like to thank the rest of the team for being so supportive and to the management for the gift vouchers," said Andy, who currently works in sales.

“My job is so varied, and every day is different, so I never know what’s coming next and that is what still makes it interesting after 25 years.

"I really enjoy being able to help people with their enquiries and I hope to continue doing what I do for many more years to come.”

Jasun Envirocare plc was established in London in 1972 and moved to Bridgwater after its factory was destroyed in a storm that same year.

The company started with 11 employees and has grown ever since.

Managing director Colin Hitch said: "I’d like to say a huge congratulations to Andy on his long service.

"He is a truly valued member of the team.

"We’d like to thank him for his hard work and dedication over the years.

“We’d also like to congratulate Janine Russell, our senior production operative, who is celebrating 20 years with us.

"We presented Janine with gift vouchers to mark her milestone and to thank her for her commitment and dedication to our business too.”
