Consolidated Fork Truck Services (CFTS) has promoted Shaun Prendergast to the role of technical manager (north). Prendergast is well known to the CFTS membership, having joined the body as assistant technical manager in 2012. The new role focusing full-time on the northern part of the UK will help CFTS ensure that the quality of examinations remains high as membership continues to grow. The CFTS was established by the British Industrial Truck Association and the Fork Lift Truck Association to provide a safe and unambiguous national standard for compulsory safety forklift tests.
