Lorraine Portnow

Said the following about Michael King:

“Michael has, for years, organised collections of easter eggs for local children in the local hospitals and this has always been so greatly appreciated by the hospitals. last year there were so many that he managed to give some to the local food bank as well. they were so grateful, that then Michael decided to organise a food bank collection over several stations. This was a great success and resulted in giving enough food, blankets, hot water bottles, nappies and personal hygiene items to share out to Harlow food bank and Bishops Stortford food bank. This accumalated enough food for around 2000 meals. He also always decorates the stations for Jubilee events, coronation and now Pride month. He always thinks of others and how he can help and often spends a lot of his own money doing this. he is a fantastic human.““

Said the following about Michael King:

“Michael has been planning, organising and delivering single handed charity events for the past few years, each year topping the previous one. His actions rally together the members of the team, engage the local community and enhance the company's name.

Michael is also decorating Stansted Mountfitchet and Sawbridgeworth ticket offices for different events, like Christmas, Easter, Pride Month, etc.

Michael has proved to be an asset for my team.“
