Have you ever heard of Investors in People? Well, I hadn’t until I did a week bit of researching for this blog.

Cecil is a caterpillar, and Cecil is MY friend. Yes, when I was a small person, we used to tell the story of Cecil the caterpillar. And now FPO have one!! Well, he IS a Caterpillar, but probably not in the traditional sense of the word. Cecil is, in fact, a forklift, made by Caterpillar. [...]
