Our People

Well done to Team Gunstones who all successfully completed Race for Life on the 11th of July – "it was an absolutely fantastic day for all of us coupled with the real sense of achievement and emotion at such a great cause!"

The team did fantastically and raised well over £1000 for Cancer Resarch. You can find more information about Cancer Reseach UK and the race for life here.

Our Employees
We employee over 1500 people across Solway Foods. We are committed to providing a healthy, safe environment in which all employees can work. Every year an employee survey is carried out across the company where all employees are given the opportunity to tell us how they think we are doing as a business. In 2009 Solway Foods will have celebrated its 10 year anniversary at the Manton Wood site.

Fit for Life
The Fit for Life campaign has been developed in line with the Fit for the Future strategy and forms part of our wellbeing programme. The campaign highlights to all employees how they can help maintain their own health and fitness through regularly reviewing their wellbeing and lifestyle. This involves free health checks with an Occupational Health Advisor; monthly health awareness topics; discounted rates at local gyms and healthy eating promotions. A key message of the programme -
“ Being healthy isn’t just about when you are at home or in the gym - you can be healthy at work too!”

Training & Development
We encourage employees to develop skills and progress in their careers. Our employees enjoy a wide range of training and development opportunities such as: Food Hygiene; NVQs; Senior Management Training; Front Line Manager Training and ESOL.
