Denise Rossiter -CEO of the Essex Chamber of Commerce opened the event followed by a project overview from Steve Carroll- Senior Supply Chain Lead. This was followed by guidance and information on the Supply Chain and how to get involved by Ashley Shorey-Mills – Head of Sizewell C Supply chain engagement.
The project overview and update was followed by a long and lively Q&A session, with some great questions from the floor. The key focus for these questions covered, skills, diversity, planning, mental health and the timelines for the project.

Our team have been very busy assisting a number of suppliers with their queries since the event and have seen a noticeable increase in registrations from Essex based businesses as a result.”
