Hopkins are pleased to be exhibiting at Glee 2022 with First Franchise. It’s been a really successful first two days! Come visit us at stand 6H75.

There were some winners and some losers! 🐎 But all the team enjoyed a perfect evening at the GG’s and Annie Mac🍾🎉🎶

At Hopkins over 10% of our staff are apprentices or trainees. In support of their ongoing training we have taken the opportunity during our recent Stores ‘spring-clean’ to donate surplus materials to our local training school, City College Southampton. The gesture was much appreciated by their representatives Alex Johnson and Wayne Lea.

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ICE CREAM! 🍦 Seeing as its National Ice Cream Day and the hottest day of the year 😎 we thought we would give all those in the office a little treat! ☀️

Thank you Andy Foster for delivering another great interactive session on wellbeing. It was fantastic to finally be able to run this face to face at Concorde House 

We are delighted to have completed a new design and build project for GRAHAM Building at Eton Sports and Aquatic Centre (ESAC), comprising a new build multi-sports hall, swimming pool, reception area, changing rooms, storage, plant areas, spectator gallery, and staff facilities.

Storm Eunice may have caused havoc for many over the weekend, but it certainly wasn’t going to impact our planned social events here at Hopkins 

National Apprenticeship Week!

At Hopkins we value our apprentices and the fantastic contribution that they bring to our organisation. Our apprenticeship programme is thriving with 18 members currently undertaking training in different areas of the company, which will help support our business direction plan over the coming years.

To help celebrate we asked two of our design apprentices, past and present, to share their thoughts and experiences. Ben Sherwood, who is at the beginning of his career and Jason Parker, who is well into his career and a great example for our apprentices that ‘the sky’s the limit’ with hard work and determination. 

After one of the most thrilling football games last night, we are now able to celebrate our J&B Hopkins Ltd World Cup winners!

We put predictions to test and asked who they thought would win the World Cup and how many goals in total would be scored throughout the tournament.

The guesses were close but our winner was……craig. Congratulations also go to Claire and Russell for runners up.
