Static Systems’ managing director, Adrian Turner said: “It’s such a difficult decision to make when there are so many worthy causes. We felt that selecting the Midlands Air Ambulance and Compton Hospice was a good balance, providing as they do, such wonderful and much needed services to our community. I think they are both causes that our employees, clients and suppliers can relate to.

“We are very happy and proud to be able to play a small part towards helping to fund their costs,” explained Mr. Turner.
