He made a video appeal at our studios which has been used on the UNICEF website and has had well over a thousand views on our own Broadband TV channel website; thanks to broadcaster Chris Evans for plugging it and well done to Paul White at Recognition for asking him to.

Energy for the New Year!
Frances writes…….Recognition has always been at the forefront of promotion developing business sectors. Even in the recession one sector that is growing is energy. We recent won a great new contract to highlight a new North East investment by Costain Energy and Process and for several years we have been promoting one of the most significant trade bodies in the sector NOF Energy.
George Rafferty (pictured), Chief Executive of NOF Energy, which represents over 300 companies in the oil, gas and energy sectors, was featured in the media last week commenting on the Crown Estates announcement to licence nine new areas for UK offshore wind farms.He said: “This is very good news for North East businesses serving the energy sector.There is a wealth of skills and experience from the oil & gas supply chain that are transferable to the offshore wind sector. “This will provide new opportunities for our members and help create some of the 60,000 jobs that are believed will be generated by the development of these offshore turbines.”
George knows what he is talking about and, as a result of raising the profile of NOF Energy, is increasingly seen as a real UK expert in the energy sector.
Meanwhile my business partner Graham, has organised a working group of businesses to advise the Conservatives on the views of Tees Valley based businesses on reform of ONE North East should the Tories win. Energy and gas storage has been right at the heart of the discussions.
