    🌍 World Health & Safety Day 2025 at DC7 🚧

    Last week, we marked World Health & Safety Day with a fun and competitive twist! Knowing how spirited the DC7 crew is, there had to be a dash of team building and a sprinkle of friendly rivalry – complete with prizes, of course!

    🧠 Challenge 1: H&S Quiz ShowdownInspired by Eric’s brilliant Jeopardy game at DC4, we kicked things off with a five-round quiz featuring health & safety brainteasers (and a few laugh-out-loud fake answers to keep things light). Points were up for grabs with every correct answer!

    🔍 Challenge 2: Spot the RiskNext up, teams hit the floor to identify workplace risks. A few sneaky (but safe) staged hazards were set up, and teams earned points for spotting those – plus bonus points for finding real risks we hadn’t planted. Each team also used a risk matrix to assess the dangers and suggest solutions.

    👏 Hard hats off to everyone for getting stuck in and taking it seriously while keeping the energy high. You made it a brilliant day – but in the end, there could only be one winner…

    🥇 Congratulations to Team C!With only one quiz question missed and eagle-eyed risk spotting, Team C nailed it with top marks and top effort!

    Well done, everyone – here’s to staying safe and having fun doing it! 💪

    • Congratulations Sean on the way you constructed this team activity to be fun but also informative. So happy with our team win 😉

    • This was an excellent, well run event that was fun and educational, I think we all learnt a lot in a short space of time in a hands on practical way.

    • Brilliant way to further educate people on H&S whilst still having fun.

    • This looks like a really nice activity Sean! I can tell I would have learned a lot because of how engaging it was. And of course, congrats to all but especially Team C 🙂

    • Well done, Sean, and all involved. The feedback was very positive. You’ve managed to make health and safety training fun and engaging again. Great effort!

    • Great team work. Well done everyone.

    Another lovely email from a consumer relating their life experience with W&N watercolors and a shout out to two of the new revival colors.

    \”I first started my watercolor journey with the Winsor & Newton Cotman Watercolors – Sketcher\’s Pocket Set of 12 after being inspired by a YouTuber who made me fall in love with watercolor. It did not feel overwhelming to me it was just perfect especially the cerulean blue hue being more worn down compared to others and it helped me start my journey into watercolor.Although I do not have the set anymore unfortunately due to circumstances I still wanted to say thank you for helping me find a way to find happiness in painting and helping me cope with past anxieties or current to help me cope with them and letting me continue my journey.(PS the Ultramarine Ash and Tyrian Purple of your revival set is so beautiful!)I hope that you have a wonderful day and thank you for leaving a wonderful and positive impression on me after many years.\”
