Ladder Association appoints chairman
The UK Ladder Association has appointed Martin Brooke of Bratts Ladders as its new chairman, taking over from Clow group managing director Cameron Clow.
Brooke has spent the last 11 years with Bratts Ladders as sales director, prior to which he worked as a surplus stock broker and a sales agent. He has also been a Ladder Association council member since 2006. One of his first roles as chairman will be to launch the association’s advocate scheme which provides speakers for regional and national meetings and conferences of trade and professional bodies.
Speaking of his appointment, he said: “I plan to spend my time in office promoting the Ladder Association’s key message - that ladders are still the most practical and cost effective piece of kit in the toolbox. In particular, I intend to highlight the benefits of Ladder Association training and the need for users to have the necessary skills and knowledge to use ladders and stepladders safely and effectively. The number of people benefiting from ladder training in recent years has grown significantly in many sectors, including construction, facilities management and retailing. This in turn has made a significant contribution to competency and best practice.”
