Triangle Telecom, which is also an internet service provider, is based in The Triangle and has gone from strength to strength over the past decade under the guidance of managing director, Paul Anslow.
Paul, who is also the chairman of the Clevedon Chamber of Commerce, said: “Like any business, the first year or two were challenging but we had clear targets and a growing customer base, many of which are still with us to this day.“Almost seven years ago we started developing voice over IP services, quickly realising that the internet was the key to all communications, which has led to us becoming an internet service provider alongside a number of household names.”The business, which currently employs 16 people and recently moved into larger premises, has developed a number of its own products and services including Hive Wi-Fi, which is sold as far afield as Saudi Arabia, and Paul has big plans for the company’s future.He added: “We are in a great place at the moment.“We have so many ideas, great customers and some very proactive partners.“Our main focus is to bring fast, reliable internet to our customers, most of which are SME businesses going through their own growth stages.“We will of course do everything we can to grow in the way that we have been doing and enjoy the next 10 years as much as the last.”
At 7am on Saturday 23rd August 2014, the Trek for Thomas team; Pete Craske, Phil Craske, Tom Morris, Stu Whiting and Simon Bodman set off to climb Ben Nevis. Over the next few days they continued onto Scafell Pike and then Snowdon. To make the challenge even more impressive, the 5 climbers added a twist to the ‘3 peaks’ challenge by cycling between each one… and then back to Bristol just for good measure!
Not only have they achieved a staggering feat, but they have raised £21,654 for the Wallace and Gromit Appeal.We are proud to have been able to help the team, and are looking forward to celebrating the completion of their challenge at the Grand Party on Saturday 4th October 2014.Bob Irwin and Jamie Butt, who both work for Triangle Telecom in Hill Road, have set themselves the task of running at least ten 10km races as well as four half-marathons by the end of the year but will fit in more if they can.So far, they have completed two half-marathons and four 10km events. The duo intend to take part in the Clevedon 10k on Tuesday next week.
They have also registered to take part in the Bristol Half- Marathon, the Royal Parks Foundation Half-Marathon and the Ashton Court 10k.In most of the events completed so far, the friends have run together. However, Bob also took on a 10k in Hollywood while on holiday earlier in the year.Bob, aged 32 of Hill Road, Clevedon, said: “Prostate cancer is a big problem in the UK and across the world with very little known about it compared to breast cancer.“Jamie and I have decided to run throughout the year to raise money for this charity.”Jamie, aged 22 of Greenslade Gardens, Nailsea, said: “My granddad passed away from prostate cancer and my grampy is also currently suffering from it.“I want to raise money to help fund research and find a cure.”Bob and Jamie have a target of reaching at least £1,000 but hope to raise even more for the cause. So far they have collected £561.■ Anyone wishing to sponsor Bob and Jamie can do so online at www.justgiving.com/Robert-Irwin1 or by texting BOBI76 and the amount (£5) to 70070.
