Wyre Solutions – News

We are taking part in the Colour Obstacle Rush!

As one of our first charity fundraising activities since Covid-19 began, Wyre Solutions are ready and excited to get out there and complete the 5K Colour Obstacle Rush to raise funds for the charity, Crohn’s & Colitis UK! 💜

Our amazing lineup will be running, jogging and dragging themselves around a 5K obstacle course filled with lots of colour and music. ❤️ 🧡 💛 💚 💙 💜 🖤

The Wyre Solutions Limited are more than just that, we are a family and the charity we are fundraising for during this occasion is for the Crohn’s & Colitis UK charity. If you don’t follow our LinkedIn page or am not familiar with us, our MD Paul Maybury is one of many across the world who is affected by Crohn’s. He is a true inspiration to us all and you can read more about how Crohn’s disease has affected his life here.

As a company, this is a charity that is close to our hearts and so, we would like to raise £500 (or more) to help those who are suffering from this disease.

If you would like to support us, you can donate via the link here.

Thank you! 😊

With mental health and well-being in mind, Wyre Solutions created “Wellness Treat Bags” which the team thoroughly enjoyed 🍫🍬

Healthy Body, Healthy Mind

As a continuation to our employee benefit scheme all Wyre employees have been provided a free gym membership to help maintain a healthy balance of work, personal life and have the ability to take flexible breaks to exercise.

The benefits of regular exercise to physical and mental health are undisputed, Wyre recognise that the demands of our industry can sometimes be challenging and involve periods of travel, antisocial working hours and pressurised environments.

We already have some great suggestions for lunch break fitness challenges and some healthy competition emerging across the office, stay tuned for an update.

Wyre Solutions are currently looking to increase our workforce, please contact Frazer Doe for information on positions available.

On the Run – Its Nearly Marathon Time for Frazer

Wyre Solutions Operations Director, Frazer Doe will be running this years Asics Manchester Marathon on April 7th to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

Frazer is no stranger to endurance fundraisers with the Three Peaks Challenge, Brecon Beacons Trekfest (56 mile hike in 24 hours) and Birmingham Velo (100 mile road cycle) already under his belt.

“So far this has been the toughest of all of the challenges I have taken part in, the achievement and funds raised for such a great cause will be well worth the effort. With just under four weeks until the big day I’m well on track to achieve my sub 4 hour goal and continue to raise as much money as possible.

Thank you to everybody that has supported me so far and I appreciate any future donations. Since I decided to do the Marathon in August 2018 sadly my Nan has been diagnosed with breast cancer and is currently undergoing treatment, for me this further highlights the importance of raising awareness and raising money to help eliminate cancer for good.”

Please see below links to Frazer’s fundraising page and Strava profile so you can keep up to date with his progress.

Good luck Frazer!

Supporting young people to start their career in IT

Eleanor Burrows enrolled on a pre-apprenticeship course with LMPQ in September 2018 after completing a Business Administration apprenticeship in Stourport. Having experienced working in an IT environment, Eleanor was keen to start a career in IT. Eleanor was the only female in a cohort of 24 school-leavers and she was the first candidate to secure an offer of employment to progress on to a Level 3 IT Infrastructure Technician. Eleanor is now a third of the way through her apprenticeship with Wyre Solutions, a software support company in Kidderminster.

“Joining LMPQ as a Level 3 Infrastructure Apprentice has been really exciting and fulfilling for me, the support to find a placement was amazing, so much so I found a placement before I had even signed up to the pre-apprenticeship. The 8-week pre-app has been really insightful and informative to the IT industry & working in general. I have been lucky enough to get an amazing placement at Wyre Solutions and as an apprentice I could not ask for a better company to work for. The 8 weeks may seem like a long time, however, it goes very quickly & you make new friends, learn new skills and it also prepares you for the course & for the placement you will hopefully secure at the end of the 8 weeks!”

LMPQ offers a unique route into employment via our 8-week pre-apprenticeship programme which helps support our candidates through the transition from the classroom to the workplace. The course covers key work-based skills such as team-working and business communications, along with the fundamentals of IT hardware, software and networking. They will also attend 2 days of sector related work experience. Upon completing the pre-apprenticeship candidates will progress into employment as an IT Apprentice.

Wyre Solutions say “On your Bike” to the Big C!

Paul Maybury (MD) & Frazer Doe (Operations Manager) took part in the 100 mile cycle race on Sunday with Kevin Giddins.

With donations coming in from Wyre’s clients, colleagues, family & friends, together they raised over £1000 for Birmingham’s QE Hospital, Fighting Skin Cancer Charity, in memory of Becky Giddins, wife & friend who sadly lost her battle to skin cancer this time last year after 3 cancer blows and 7 years of treatment!

“Over the last few years through the many fundraisers and challenges we’ve done we have raised over £30,000, Velo will be a tough one but let’s be honest we’ve all been through a lot worse” Said Kevin.

“As hard as it was, we’re so proud to help such a good course and want to thank everyone for their donations & support” Paul quoted

They finished the 100 mile slog in 7:30:49 hours.
