Well done to all those who have worked hard over the past few weeks to prepare the office for launch. Earlier this month OHES exhibited at the Oil Care Campaign’s 20th Anniversary conference. OHES Managing Director, Stewart Ower, gave the closing speech of the day as Chairman of UKSpill. Throughout the day we heard about the journey of the campaign over the last 20 years, with talks from Phil Chatfield who aided its launch, Richard Martin from Defra who spoke about the achievements of the campaign and Liz Hobday who spoke about the campaign’s plans for the future. We also heard about the ongoing necessity of the campaign, with speakers from the Environment Agency and the Oil Recycling Association among others. The day was a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the success of the campaign. The Oil Care Campaign is an organisation Stewart has supported since its origins in 1995 and OHES is proud to continue this support with OHES Operations Director, Dan Jones, sitting on the Oil Care Campaign Committee as the only invited environmental consultancy member due to our vast experience of dealing with oil spills. As an aside, when Stewart worked at the Environment Agency he used to draw many of the illustrations used on Environment Agency posters, brochures and literature. The Oil Care Campaign were prolific users of this service and the poster displayed here was designed to encourage the use of waste oil banks at civic amenity sites – a relatively new concept at the time.
