As the schools prepare to return for the next term, we also get ready to support the next academic year of the Jon Egging Trust’s Blue Skies programme. And what better time to reflect on the graduation ceremonies JET hosted over the summer months for the students who took part.

By the tranquil waters of Lee-on-Solent in Hampshire, CGI, NATS and Project Seagrass have completed an environmental, social and governance (ESG) activity as part of their relationship and delivery activities.

Once a series of clay pits for the neighbouring Bursledon Brickworks, the now beautiful oasis of the Swanwick Lakes Nature Reserve is abuzz with summer activity and successes from nature. The reserve, which sits alongside the NATS operational centre in Hampshire, is a partnership project between the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust and NATS. Last year we celebrated three decades of working together at the site. And now as we are enjoying summer, we celebrate so many other achievements.

Working in partnership is absolutely fundamental to what we do. That’s true for the special relationship between air traffic controllers and pilots and for the customers, suppliers and organisations that we work with all over the world.
