LCM: Taking on the Born Survivor challenge
LCM, the Lancashire-based, fuel, energy, and infrastructure specialist, has proudly announced that their team is once again taking part in the ‘Born Survivor’ obstacle challenge in support of Helping Homeless Veterans UK.
Richard Wallace, Managing Director, said: “At LCM Environmental Services Ltd, we work in industries that value duty, teamwork and resilience – qualities we also see in our veterans.
“Completing Born Survivor as a team is our way of honouring that service and raising funds for Helping Homeless Veterans UK, who provide practical support, safe accommodation and a path back into work for those who’ve fallen on hard times.
“The obstacles are tough, but they’re nothing compared with the challenges many ex-servicemen and women face every day. We’re proud to get muddy for a cause that helps veterans rebuild their lives.”

Northern Energy: Making a Difference Together

New Era Energy: Nominated for industry awards
New Era Energy, the Essex-based fuel distributor, has been shortlisted for two industry awards at the Supply Chain Excellence Awards.
The business has been shortlisted for The Clean Transport Award and The Sustainable Supply Chain Award.
A proud moment
Melissa Lancaster, Brand Manager, said: “Being shortlisted in not one, but two categories at this year’s Supply Chain Excellence Awards is a proud moment for all of us at New Era Energy.
“These nominations are more than just recognition; they’re proof that low-emission fuel and clean transport can deliver real change. As a brand, we’ve always believed that sustainability isn’t a sideline, it’s the standard. From Scope 1 to Scope 3, we’re helping our partners move smarter and cleaner.
“We’re delighted to be part of a future where collaboration creates climate impact, and this shortlist is fuel to keep us moving.”
Innovative and sustainable solutions
Hollie Mills, Head of Sustainable Fuel Solutions, added: “As a customer focused supplier, we value opportunities from our partners to support them with their decarbonisation journey, above and beyond the fuel.
“By continuously striving for excellence with our innovative and sustainable solutions, including HVO supply and environmental services, we play an integral role building a robust sustainable supply chain. We take the responsibility of reducing emissions seriously, so running our own entire delivery fleet on HVO also allows our clients to benefit from the significant Scope 3 savings we make achievable.
“Not only do these nominations reflect the success of New Era’s personal commitment, but also the success in the power of collaboration such as ours with John F Hunt and Winter Wonderland.”
Good luck to the New Era team for the awards in November!

Hull-based, independent, family-owned Rix Petroleum recently shared the heart-warming story of “a little rescue from the road”.
While out on his calls, Alex Lambert – a Yorkshire sales rep for Rix – spotted a tiny kitten all alone at the roadside, with no mum in sight. The company proudly shared how quick-thinking Alex, gently placed it in his insulated Rix bag to keep it safe and warm as he took it straight to a local rescue.
With a Trust volunteer confirming that the ‘beautiful little cutie’ was doing well, a spokesperson for Rix commented: “We’re relieved this little one is now safe, cared for, and no longer on its own.”
Well done Alex!
