Supporters Club for Businesses

9 October 2005

Representatives from Northern Ireland Electricity (NIE) came down to the Tree Nursery in Bangor in late September to receive a certificate celebrating their involvement in the Conservation Volunteers Northern Ireland Supporters Club for Businesses. Tanya Wishart, Transmission Project Engineer, NIE received the certificate on behalf of NIE from Anthony McQuillan, Director, Conservation Volunteers Northern Ireland.
